I am or should I say, have been trying to find a solution to this problem.
I have a set of dynamically generated forwards with differing attributes
that make up the query string for the forward. Do your actions bypass your
action form and go to the action class directly and if they do how do you
initialize the properties in your action form class? I know I should be
trying to solve your problem, but maybe we could help each other out on this
one seeing that we have the same problem.
Thanks
Lisa.
