I solved the problem "resetting" the bean.
Instead of the useBean tag, i use:
myBeanClass bean = new myBeanClass();
session.setAttribute("id bean istance", bean)
So each time u acces to this page, the bean is resetted to the deafult
value.
After this, u'll have to put the setProperty * tag to initialize the bean
with the new values submitted.
P.S.: Remember that using the setProperty * feature, the corresponding set
methods are called only if the corresponding form field is not empty. I
mean, if u fill & submit the form, then u come back, delete a field and then
submit again, the field u deleted won't be set to a null value in the bean
but it will keep the old value. It's better to use manually the set property
methods: bean.setProperty1("value") for each fields of the form.
