Is there a reason I am losing my request parameters when returning validation errors to a multipart form page?
I have a simple struts form. It has a few text fields and a file field. The enctype is multipart/form-data on my form. I validate in the actionform's validate method. If the text fields are empty, I return errors that they are required. Along with the visible fields, I pass a few hidden fields that are needed as request params when the form is processed and returned to the jsp. The jsp needs these request params. Everything works great when there are no validation errors as the request params get returned by using the ActionRedirect class in the action. But if there are errors returned, I lose the request params. (I am able to access them in the actionform validate method or in the action). If I perform a test of 2 identical forms with a few required text fields, one multipart one url-encoded, the url-encoded form maintains the request params when validation errors are returned and the multipart form does not. What am I doing wrong? How can I make sure the request params are passed back upon validation error in multipart form? Thanks!
