Andy:
What "scope" do you use in the usebean tag in your jsp? If, for example, you
set the values for your bean and save it in your session, then you should set
the scope within the usebean tag as "session". I don't use the useBean tag in
my jsps, so am not certain, but it seems as if your page.jsp is using page
scope maybe and therefore creating a new one with default values..?
So try this: In your servlet, change your bean as you want using your form
values. Then set a session attribute like so:
mySession.setAttribute("myBean", myBean);
Then forward to your page.jsp. In page.jsp use your usebean tag as usual but
also specify the scope using "scope="session"..

Geeta
