Michael, I don't see the analogy with "Save As" dialog. And ActionForm is not a businees object indeed. Don't know what to do with this valuable information though...
If there is nothing in Struts which can help me then it is the information I am looking for. Although I would appreciate any ideas on application design for my case. Lets consider a simple example - multi-formed survey. Form 1: Person's details Form 2: Person's address details Form 3: Is there any relatives? Form 4: Relative's details Form 5: Is there any more relatives? If "yes" - go to Form 4. .... Form 6: Some other details Form 7: Finish a survey What options do I have? I could manually process forms in Form4 Action class and save instances in session, for example, but then "Back" wouldn't work as expected. I am not talking about processing or manipulating the data, this's purely interface issue at this point of time.
