A local extension that I made to Struts 1.0 is possibly germane to this discussion. If you don't mind looking at ActionServlet-based code I'll post my work here. I might go ahead and translate it to RequestProcessor. I planned to eventually do this all along, since all it did was override

Could you use a DecimalFormat to parse it? It has several different parsing methods, not all of which throw exceptions. For example: http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.3/docs/api/java/text/DecimalFormat.html#parse(jav a.lang.String,%20java.text.ParsePosition) Returns null to indicate an error.

Note: Our application is built using Struts 1.0.2, so we are dealing with the process methods of ActionServlet. However, I think something similar would apply to the RequestProcessor of Struts 1.1. We found ourselves subclassing ActionServlet to insert custom code into the processPreprocess,
