Ted, I think I may be getting where our communication was breaking down in my head.
Suppose X.Action --> display --> X.jsp --> submit Y.Action --> display --> Y.jsp. Now, what about the ActionForm? You seem to see the ActionForm as relating primarily to some X.jsp, i.e. XActionForm.java and the <html:form> on that page. This, of course, leads rather customarily to two actions and two mappings and to the sorts of issues you raise. Is that right? I apologize if I am misunderstanding you. I am trying to see why what you say mystifies me and I might not be getting it right. If so, if I am right about what you are doing, my perspective is different. I do not see the YActionForm.java as related to Y.jsp but to X.jsp AND Y.jsp *which could be, of course, the same) and to any other submission and display JSPs which are mapped to YAction.java. If I understand your focus, it is on the ActionForm and the ActionForm is a bridge between Actions, leading to seeing two mappings, two Actions. My focus is on the Action and the Action is a bridge between two siews. So, your focus leads to ActionForms tied to a paritcular view and my focus leads to ActionsForms tied to two views. I hope this is not all wrong-headed and that I have not understood a word you are saying. I am a good learner but sometimes slow. I tend to learn these things on my own and find out later how others think.
