Mallik,
The way I have always made this work in the past is to call the validate method
on the form bean myself in the action rather than leaving it the validator to
call for me.
Set validate="false" in the action mapping in struts-config.xml. Then in the
action call the validate method on the form bean.
ActionMessages valErrors = ((DynaValidatorForm)form).validate(mapping, request);
Then
if (!valErrors.isEmpty())
{
.. repopulate the drop down lists and form fields
.forward back to the page
}
Hope this helps.
