Thanks, I'm trying to keep that clear in my head. I guess now I'm starting to think I like the lazy idea of every form being $form.* instead of $MyWidgetForm, $MyStupidForm, etc. > that said, back in the day, i lobbied for using reflection > trickery to pull of $form.* and now i can't recall the > arguments involved. hmm. offhand, that could cause trouble > if someone had a method in their ActionForm that collided > with one of the standard FormTool methods. Ok. Understood. We could just change the tool key to $formtool and then forms could be either $MyStupidForm or just $form as built-in alias. That trickery must be possible in the backend since a few emails back we were talking about doing it in the front end view, right? i.e. #set ($myform = $form.bean) BTW - Anybody figure out if multiple forms might exist which would screw that default alias trick up a bit?
