Why not just let the form bean do it's job and validate itself? Have you looked at using the validator? Validation belongs in the form bean; actions' main job is to direct traffic and execute business layer methods. David
For Generic type of validation the ActionForm is an appropiate
place to do validation. To restate what David said, the ActionForm
is designed to be passive, and have values info it needs passed
to it. It should definately not make method calls to other Business Logic.
To add to that,Any complex validation would take place in the Business Logic, with the Action being the go between loading and unloading the
ActionForm and calling validation methods in the Business Logic.
