Ted (or anyone else):
I am having a problem (I'm a newbie) with calling an Action.do to "preload" form data. The problem I am having is that I want to have "validation=true" so that my form will perform validation... What's happening is I have a menu (from a jsp file) with the following: <html:link page="/BillingAction.do?Mode=Add"> I have a BillingForm with a "validate()" method that I wish to use.... Apparently, struts always calls the forms validation() prior to my Action perform(). Since the form has not yet come up, my required fields validation is returning validation errors.... Is there a way to have an Action be a part of a link and NOT have the corresponding form's validation called until you hit the "submit" button on the form? That's the way I thought it was supposed to behave but it is not the case... Is there a way around this? I need to have "validation=true" in my struts.config file but the framework will call "validation()" even before the form is brought up when I select the link tag :-( thanks for any help, Theron -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> For additional commands, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
