Some clarification to my previous post: if I add in the missing required field headWeight, then the action gets called and everything's fine. otherwise, it would not even construct the action, it happened before action gets constructed and called.. If a field is missing, shouldn't it just populate the bean and forwards back to the input page with the error msg instead of giving a mysterious error? what's wrong with the way i m using struts validation?
