Thanks for your replies. I followed your suggestions, now I create a form in my action class, set its values based on the session object, store it in session scope and forward to the JSP but the form produced has the default values of my action form instead of the values in the form object I have created. Any ideas why this happens?

Simple... in the action that forwards to the jsp.... you do have an action forwarding to the jsp right? :) Something like if( object in session) { copy object to form; } forward to jsp > > public OptionsForm() > { > } > > My question now is how/where can I call > > Options options = > (Options)request.getSession().getAttribute("userOptions"); > > From within my ActionForm class > > Thanks > > -----Original Message----- > From: Lee Harrington [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: 01 December 2004 18:58 > To: Struts Users Mailing List > Subject: Re: Checking radio button based on object value > > I'll describe the scenario where you are using a database. > > In the action that is displaying "existing values" (ones in > the database) > 1.
