Let me rephrase my question.
I have a table which looks like this.. example
<table width="300" border="0" cellspacing="1" cellpadding="1">
<tr>
<th>Name</th>
<th>Sex</th>
</tr>
<tr>
<td><html:text property="name" /></td>
<td><html:select property="sex" >
<html:option value=""> </html:option>
<html:option value="M" >Male</html:option>
<html:option value="F" >Female</html:option>
</html:select>
</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td><html:text property="name" /></td>
<td><html:select property="sex" >
<html:option value=""> </html:option>
<html:option value=""> </html:option>
<html:option value="M" >Male</html:option>
<html:option value="F" >Female</html:option>
</html:select>
</td>
</tr>
</table>
So when I add data like
Sashi Male
Sushma FEMALE
now I submit the form, and say there are some validation errors
how can I build the table with the above values retrieving from the Form
Bean .My form bean has the following methods
public String[] getName(){
return name;
}
public void setName(String[] newName){
name = newName;
}
public String[] getSex(){
return sex;
}
public void setSex(String[] newSex){
sex = newSex;
}
The values are getting stored in the array, but to get them back and
build my table is what is not clear to me..
<logic:iterate > may do the job but how to use it??
Hope I am clear now

doesn't the form do this automatically? if validation fails, i think
the standard behavior is to return the user to the page just as they
left it -- preferably with the appropriate error message....i know
there are multiple ways to do the validation (and i'm not using the
best way), but one way is to have a method like the one below in you
form bean. If any of the following conditions are met, the user is
returned to the page with the form populated.
Hope this helps.

public ActionErrors validate(ActionMapping mapping,
HttpServletRequest request) {
ActionErrors errors = new ActionErrors();
if (this.isBlankString(oldpassword)) {
errors.add("oldpassword",new
ActionError("error.required.oldpassword"));
}
if (this.isBlankString(newpassword1)) {
errors.add("newpassword1", new
ActionError("error.required.newpassword1"));
}
if (this.isBlankString(newpassword2)) {
errors.add("newpassword2", new
ActionError("error.required.newpassword2"));
}
// Test to see if the new passwords are the same.
if (!newpassword1.equals(newpassword2)) {
errors.add("newpassword1", new
ActionError("error.passwordmatch"));
}
return errors;
}
