Sri, It's sweet to see it's working.
Regarding the <html:form> v <nested:form>, there is a difference in that the nested variant is putting the reference into the request and all the child tags pick up directly. The <html:form> on the other hand, the child nesting tags are looking for the reference in the request, not finding it, and then attempting to walk the tag hierarchy to find a <html:form> tag to get the bean/reference from. The old tags did the tree walking thing for everything, but now they're only doing it for backward compatibility, which seems to have failed. I think that this could be the issue with the new tomcat. The tag hierarchy walking isn't reliable, and the old nested tags relied on it. Definitely the easiest thing to do is to simply use the <nested:form> tag. I'll look again at nesting inside <html:form> for the various containers.
