Yes, that's what I want, I will give it a try. but what do u mean struts "always calls reset()" everytime it access the form, this is very strange, even the form is in session!!!!!!
Plz domonstrate more, as far as I understood: 1- When a JSP submits a form. 2- Struts calls reset for the form. 3- Try to populate the form from the JSP controls, even it was in session. -----Original Message----- From: Andrea M [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Sunday, May 16, 2004 1:11 PM To: 'Struts Users Mailing List' Subject: R: Maintaining form data across pages... Hi I'm not sure I've understood properly what you need What I understand is that you are trying to populate the same actionform using several pages. The problem is that struts *always calls reset()* every time it access the form. What you can do is making your pages set a flag in the request, so your form can know where it's called from. Reset() method takes httpServletRequest as parameter, so you can implement conditional logic there... sometimes like: public void reset(ActionMapping mapping, HttpServletRequest request) { // first time accessed so I can set everything to null if (request.getParameter("flag") == null) { // set all properties to null here } else if (request.getParameter("flag").equals("page1") { // set to null only properties not present in page1 } else if (request.getParameter("flag").equals("page2") { // set to null only properties not present in page2 } ... } -----Messaggio originale----- Da: Ayoub, Ashraf A [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Inviato: domenica 16 maggio 2004 11.58 A: Struts Users Mailing List Oggetto: Maintaining form data across pages... Dears, I am trying to setup a series of jsp pages (requestForm, confrimation jsp). I set the scope of my requestForm to "session" as to maintain the data across the various jsps, but I get it as if reset is called, after the confirmation page submits. What is the best way to maintain the request data across several jsp pages, speically I have lots of pages as step 1, step 2, step 3 before submiting the action, with different form beans.
