Bill: I tried adding the redirect="true" parameter to my success forward and it does not seem to have an effect. When I get to the success page and hit the reload button on my browser, the form data is posted again.
You can try it by going to: https://dev.jammconsulting.com/pricetracker/register.do enter something (junk is OK) in the email address field and hit the Save button. When you get to the success page, hit the reload button on the browser. You will get a pop up that tells you it is resending the information. Here is what I have in my struts-config.xml file: <action path="/registerForm" type="register.RegisterAction" name="registerForm" scope="request" input="register.index" validate="true"> <forward name="success" path="register.success" redirect="true"/> </action> Any ideas why that did not work?
