If
* the class extends one of the ActionForm base classes, and
* the class overrides the base validate method, and
* the class is registered as the form bean for the action, and
* the validate methods returns a non-null and non-empty ActionErrors
collection,
then the input location should be selected before the Action ever executes.
If it's not working, then one of the conditions must be false.
The next thing I would try would be to hardware an non-null, non-empty
ActionError return, so as to eliminate a variable.
