In Struts 1.0.2 and later, reset is called by the html:form tag *if* the ActionForm is being instantiated at that time. The scope shouldn't matter.

Also remember that the html:form tag is looking at the Action to which it submits, which may not be "Action 1". If these are the same Action, or share the same formbean under the same attribute, then the ActionForm should already exist, and reset should not be called.

Here's what I've got - in struts-config I have an ActionForm that is shared
by two Actions.  The ActionForm is created in session scope by the first
action, and referenced by the second Action (also in session).  Tracing the
calls to 'reset' and 'validate' I see the following:

        JSP is displayed  -> html form is submitted -> 'reset' is called ->
'validate' is called -> Action 1 is performed -> forward to next JSP ->
'reset' is called -> JSP is displayed
        
/\/\/\/\/\/\/\ !

My understanding is that 'reset' should not be called again until the form
on the second JSP is submitted.  Have I completely mis-understood how this
works?  Or is it something due to the ActionForm being created in session
scope?

TIA!
