Siva, Don't declare the action path, if u want validate before submitting the form to action class.
Declare the action path in the script itself.

If validation fails, I want to stop the process. In Javascript function, i added return false. so that it stops the process. When I was running the application, after performing the javascript validation (though Layout ID is NULL), it throwed alert message and invoked the action also which i was not expecting. How do we stop the process if javascript validation fails? <html:link style="font-weight: bold; font-size:11; background:none" target="_blank" paramId="layoutID" paramName="frmEmailLayout" paramProperty="layoutID" action="emaillayout.do?function=viewHTML" onClick="validateLayout()"> View File as HTML </html:link> function validateLayoutID(){ var1 = document.forms[0].layoutID.value; if(var1==""){ alert("Layout ID cannot be empty"); document.forms[0].layoutID.focus(); return false; } } Any help appreciated!
