GOT IT! But, this might be the worst piece of hackery I've ever done. Check it out... Joe's last response spurred me to realize that if I could override the input field of the ActionMapping, I could do what I want. As I thought, processPreprocess() fires before processValidate(), which means

You are referring to the CoR-based Struts build, correct Joe? If not, I'm not seeing that class in the 1.1 javadocs. If your talking CoR as I think you are though, I haven't gotten that far yet :) I'm trying to get this to a point of equillibrium that I'm happy with based on the current codeb
