Hi Dave, Thanks for your reply. I tried defining a java bean as below
public class PersonalDetailForm implements Serializable { String name; String dob; String city; public PersonalDetailForm() {} // also defined all the getter setter methods.... } In the action class i defined a attribute called public PersonalDetailForm getForm() { return form; } public void setForm(PersonalDetailForm form) { this.form = form; } PersonalDetailForm form; and the jsp looks like <s:form action="doPersonal" method="POST" name="form"> <s:actionerror /> <s:fielderror /> <s:textfield name="name" label="Name" /> <br/> <s:textfield name="dob" label="Date of birth" /> <br/> <s:textfield name="city" label="city" /> <br/> <s:submit value="Next" align="center"/> </s:form> in the action class when i do a form.getCity() it throws a NUllPointerException.... i think the form is not initialised on the form submission... unlike struts 1.x we cannot confire the bean class in the struts-config.xml.... Can you please help? Manoj.

Use regular JavaBeans and use the appropriate bean in the JSP form and configure validation for each bean/method combination. That's a really, really long signature.
