Hi Laurie
Thanks for the reply. I finally figured it out. Removing the
visitorFields pattern fixed the problem.
I'm guessing my combination of annotations is incorrect. So I had....
CLASS LEVEL
-----------
@Validation
Execute() method:
------------------------------------
@Validations(visitorFields = {
@VisitorFieldValidator(message = "Default message",
fieldName = "surname",
appendPrefix = false)
})
setSurname() method:
------------------------------------
@RequiredStringValidator(message="Validation error",
key="validate.surname")
I'm guessing that I'm not supposed to use the visitorFields annotation
with the others. Was giving me some really strange behaviour. Will hunt
for some better examples...

Do you have a setSurname(String) method? Without it, Struts can't pass
the input data into your action.

If you do have the setter in your action and you're getting this, do you
have any action errors/messages showing up when you get returned to the
input page?
