This is what's happening:
1) User submit form with invalid data to /Control.do
2) Struts finds action mapping for /Control.do and sees validate="true"
3) Struts call's the form's validate()
4) validate returns false
5) Since validation fails, Struts forwards to the "input" url
6) Go to step 2
There are several possible solutions:
1) Use a different action class to handle the invalid form, set its
mapping to validate="false"
2) Set validate="false" on /Control and validate manually
3) Use the same action class but different URL mappings
("/ControlInvalid",validate="false")
If you want to investigate (2) but you don't know how, check out
