Same problem here, A form uses a submit button and the related action is called twice. This was probably happening from the start of my project but I just found out when I tried to make some changes and then found out that the second time the incoming form is null so my app crashes if I try to so properties.getSimpleProperty (from the form bean)...
Any ideas would be greatly appriciated...

Thanks! > /Jeremiah How are you invoking the action (from an HTML link? form submission? directly by typing the URL into the address bar?); is there any Javascript involved? Does the response contain any suspect hrefs (for example <img/> tags with src="#") that might be triggering the second request? Using something like tcpflow to watch what's going over the wire can help figure out where your 'mystery' request is coming from. If that doesn't help, I'd suggest posting any HTML that invokes the action as well as the HTML it produces as a resonse.
