Kevin,
I don't have any controller section in my struts-config.xml. And,
according to the O'Reilly book, I don't need one to do this (at least
they didn't mention it).
In fact, the O'Reilly book shows the html being updated with "* First
Name is required..." when the user submits an incomplete form. Does
struts automatically rewrite the html output of the jsp to include the
errors? Very unclear to me... Kinda like magic.
That said, I think I may not have made part of my desctiption clear.
I said
"Changing the form method to GET, the url is
...<formname>.do... after the submit.".
What I meant by <formname> was not the name of the form bean, but the
name of the action in the jsp's html:form tag. In other words, the
name of the action associated with the form, SaveTWSItem.
Also, LOCCreateParticipants.jsp may have been a typo in the action -
that jsp is a tile inside of LOCCreate.jsp (which was not referenced
in my code snippet). I changed my action to reflect that, but I am
still having the same problem.
If you still think I should pursue the global forward (not an ideal
solution to me - I don't want too many "globals"), I will. But I'm
open to other solutions.
Actually, let me ask this question in another way: can someone explain
the path struts takes when validating using a DynaValidatorForm with a
validation error? How does the app get notified there is a validation
error?
Thanks,
/greg
p.s. I'm attaching the code again...
