Yeah, I think that there is another issue. I have added the name of the bean in the action mapping, the <html:textarea> still gives problems.
This one works: <textarea name="messageBody" rows="15" cols="62" WRAP></textarea> This one does not work: <html:textarea property="messageBody" rows="15" cols="62" WRAP></html:textarea> Okay, the action mapping is like: <action path="/MailMessage" parameter=".message.Form" name="messageForm" type="org.apache.struts.actions.ForwardAction"/> and the <form-bean .... tag is like: <form-bean name="messageForm" type="org.apache.struts.validator.DynaValidatorForm"> <form-property name="msgtype" type="java.lang.String"/> <form-property name="sender" type="java.lang.String"/> <form-property name="receiver" type="java.lang.String"/> <form-property name="messageTopic" type="java.lang.String"/> <form-property name="priority" type="java.lang.String"/> <form-property name="distribution" type="java.lang.String"/> <form-property name="messageBody" type="java.lang.String"/> </form-bean> --- Jim Barrows <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > > > -----Original Message----- > > From: Matt Bathje [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > > Sent: Friday, September 10, 2004 2:38 PM > > To: Struts Users Mailing List > > Subject: Re: [SOLVED]Cannot retrieve definition > for form bean null > > > > > > Jim Barrows wrote: > > > > > > <snip> > > > > > > > > > > > > > Not the form bean class...
