Subject: RE: Validator won't validate single required field

Only one action displays the page: ChooseProfileAction, mapped as:
<action path="/chooseProfile"
type="edu.asu.vpia.struts.ChooseProfileAction"
name="chooseProfileForm"
scope="request"
validate="true"
input="choose.profile">
<forward name="success" path="/viewProfile.do" />
<forward name="resolution" path="/resolveName.do" />
</action>
This hasn't been a problem until I tried to use validation. Since my JSP's
are stored under WEB-INF, I can't go directly to the JSP first and then to
the action only on submit.
So... could I duplicate the above mapping, but use a path such as
/chooseProfileInitial and turn validation off when that path is used?
The other thing I was considering is placing a token in the session and
overriding validate() [I think, haven't looked at the ValidateAction javadoc
yet] only calling super.validate() if the token is present, which it won't
be on the first access.
