You can also be more careful about which properties are reset when. Both the mapping and the request are passed to reset, giving you the opportunity to look ahead.
The default reset does nothing. The properties are only affected if you've overridden this class and specified what happens to the properties before the form is populated from the request. If you forward to another Action, any properties you changed in a previous Action will revert to the original, since these are populated from the request again. But if you are only setting additional properties, then this won't be a problem. -- Ted Husted, Husted dot Com, Fairport NY USA. -- Custom Software ~ Technical Services. -- Tel +1 716 737-3463 -- http://www.husted.com/struts/ [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: > > Yes, I would expect this.
