This is what I use... <logic:present ...> -- main body here -- </logic:present> <logic:notPresent name=...> <logic:redirect ...> </logic:notPresent>
Now if you're talking about the person filled out the form (or whatever) and then let the session expire.. The first thing I would check in the Validate Method would be to see if the session attribute I put there when logging in was actually there. As for the NPE, I debug based on trial and error sometimes and since I don't have your full logic flow I can't give you a for certain answer, just suggestions. if ( request.getAttribute(" ") == null) //not sure what getAttribute returns if nothing is there. { mapping.findForward("expired"); } Hope this helps, Andrew --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
