As you suggested, setting validate to false worked. Strange it has never happened with any other forms in my app. Thanks for your help

Then, the validate method of your form will be called before your action.execute method is called. Ciaran Hanley wrote: Hello, I have a simple form in my application which I am having trouble with. On entering the action class and forwarding to the JSP I see error messages which should only appear when the form has been validated after submitting. I cannot figure out why this is appearing as all that is called inside the action class is a mapping.findForward() to the page in question. Can anybody suggest any possible reasons as to why I am seeing the form error messages before submitting. Thanks, CH -- Kevin J Citron Sr. Object Imagineer Optimized Objects, Inc.
