First off all Thank you so much Greg, You have been doing a great job!. And you express things pretty clear, Which I may not. Please bare with me for some more time.
When I am doing a chain in the input, as show below <action name="saveInitConsiderationEval" class="com.activity.EvaluateCaseAction" method="saveInitConsiderationEval"> <interceptor-ref name="redirectInput"/> <result name="success" type="redirect-action"> determineCaseEvaluationType </result> <result name="input" type="chain"> determineCaseEvaluationTypeForInput </result> </action> The action "determineCaseEvaluationTypeForInput" is again looking for the input, in which case there is no input. <action name="determineCaseEvaluationTypeForInput" class="com.activity.EvaluateCaseAction" method="determineCaseEvaluationTypeForInput"> <result name="guidelInitConsid" type="tiles">editGuidelinesCaseEvaluation</result> <result name="shrtsntcInitConsid" type="tiles">editShortSentenceCaseEvaluation</result> <result name="sscat2p1InitConsid" type="tiles">editShortSentenceCaseEvaluation</result> <result name="sscat2p2InitConsid" type="tiles">editShortSentenceCaseEvaluation</result> </action> <action name="determineCaseEvaluationType" class="com.activity.EvaluateCaseAction" method="determineCaseEvaluationType"> <result name="guidelInitConsid" type="tiles">editGuidelinesCaseEvaluation</result> <result name="shrtsntcInitConsid" type="tiles">editShortSentenceCaseEvaluation</result> <result name="sscat2p1InitConsid" type="tiles">editShortSentenceCaseEvaluation</result> <result name="sscat2p2InitConsid" type="tiles">editShortSentenceCaseEvaluation</result> </action> ---- The question is pretty simple and in a simple view. I am displaying the JSP depend on the some string that action returns, When validation happens(fails) I want to display the same jsp with the validation message and the values. I hope you got my last sentece. I got an alternate for this by setting the request value in the getter and setter method of the view bean which is a bad approach , I know !! -:( Thanks Siddiq.
