You need to specify that your particular action uses a form-bean (for example "UserFormBean"). You may be wanting to display a blank form to the user, but as the jsp is rendering that form, it needs to check the fields of UserFormBean to display it's content (which could be null or empty in your case). You would specify the action to submit to in the html:form tag. Struts will then use the form-bean that you specified (which happens to be the same..."UserFormBean").
