I see your points but I disagree. I try to keep session use to an ABSOLUTE minimum, because each session is stored in server memory and with every current user filling out form there is a change, be it slight or not, that the server will slow down or crash. I know it might be less desireable from a maintenance perspective buy my time and effort in development is a lesser concern weighed against the performance of a productions system. I totally understand that this probably won't happen, but planning for the worst case is never a bad idea.But isn't the server sending all those hidden form fields as well? And network transmission is certainly slower than memory access.
Just sayin', is all.
I don't use action forms because I dont like em. No real reason other than that. I think action forms don't provide any real benefit if you are proficient in html and want precise to the pixel control of style on the presentation layer. Just my personal preference.What do ActionForms have to do with the presentation layer and control over layout?!
In any case, how are you pre-populating your forms, then? Scriptlets? Embedding c:out (or equiv.) into POHTML input tags? Bletcherous.
