But you did not specify the form for the "showForm" action, did you?
Because if you specify it, the controller creates one for you before
the call to execute(..) and puts it in the request.
My problem is that the "input" action and the action that saves data
have the same form, so I don't think I can use your approach.
Or I am wrong?
