I am going to try that out in our new application Frank. The "trim" issue
was with our older app, which is the big sustaining force (cash cow) for our
company, and I wasn't able to push through the new jar and web.xml changes
there, as people are nervous whenever I suggest anything major there.
I do like the JWP concept, and will try it out in our new app and let you
know of any shortcommings I find. Thanks for your help and your work in
making it available.

The ParameterMungerFilter in JWP didn't do the trick for you? I'd love to
know what shortcomings you found so that I can work to improve it :)

As far as "required" goes, that probably won't work because I could have a
string like " test " which would pass the "required test, wouldn't
it? unless I misunderstood what you are suggesting.
I did try a generic loop as per Joe's suggestion and that worked pretty
well. Here is a what I did.
java.util.Map map = thisForm.getMap();
java.util.Iterator it = map.keySet().iterator();
while(it.hasNext()){
String key = (String) it.next();
Object obj = map.get(key);
if (obj instanceof String){
obj = ((String) obj).trim();
}
else if(obj instanceof String[]){
String[] temp = (String[]) obj;
for(int i=0;i<temp.length; i++){
temp[i] = temp[i].trim();
}
obj = temp;
}
map.put(key, obj);
}

Wouldn't this be easier, without mucking with the form, to let this be
handled by the validator itself. For any field validation you would just
have to have the "requires" validation before you do any other
validation,
and that way you would take care of empty strings or as Joe said you
could
do this in javascript as well pretty easily.
