put the actionform scope in session in your <action mapping in struts-config.xml
-----Original Message----- From: John De Lello [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, September 12, 2006 4:44 PM To: user@struts.apache.org Subject: Validation and Form Collections Hello Everyone, I have a question regarding validation. I have JSP that uses the Html:Options tag to populate a DDLB. The action class creates the collection and puts it in the Form. All works fine until the form validation fails. When I come back from the form validation, I am getting a "Bean define cannot assign to a null value" error. I know this is because the action class is never reached if validation fails, so I'm wondering how I can preserve the collection in the form in that case. Do I need to re-populate the collection in the validate method if a failure occurs? I was trying to keep all that logic in the action class only. I can't put the collection in Session because for other reasons that I don't control. Any help or suggestions would be appreciated. Thank you John --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
