It's really simple using your way. Thank you :) I can do that with Struts 1.2 (eclipse 3.0, exadel 2.5), but it seems to me that it doesn't work in JDeveloper 10.1.2.0.0 build 1811) which uses Struts 1.1. Does anybody know that it is because of Struts 1.1 or because of my program?

You'll also need a hidden variable in your form to flag whether you're in edit or add mode, so your backend does the appropriate DB action. The mailreader example app that ships with struts shows the basic approach to doing this. I suggest that you look at that code and see how they do it there. - Scott > -----Original Message----- > From: Thai Dang Vu [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: Wednesday, June 29, 2005 10:27 AM > To: user@struts.apache.org > Subject: Populating the ActionForm without using the reset method? > > Hi all, > > Maybe I ask too much but I'm just a newbie in Struts and > nobody in my department can help me :( > > This is my situation: I have an input.jsp page to let users > enter data and click 'Save'.
