If the missing fields are display-only, you might need to add hidden fields to carry their values along in the request when the page is submitted so that they will be available on a validation error.
reset() is called before the ActionForm is populated with the values from the request, so I don't think it matters what you do to them there. As long as they are in the request (and the names in the HTML form match your ActionForm), they should be populated in the ActionForm when a validation error occurs. -Max ----- Original Message ----- From: "krishnamohan" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Monday, October 06, 2003 6:10 AM Subject: data disappearing in jsp > Hi, > > In my jsp page I have 5 fields out of which 2 fields are required.
