If I don't call mylistbox.fillfromDB(); My list box will be empty! That's way I need to go to the prepare action! I know that values the user entered would be already in the request and ready for the jsp page, but the listbox has to be loaded from the db. Think about the list as a list of States in USA. It is something I have to retrieve each time I go to the jsp page (unless I put it in the session, of course). That's way I need mylistbox.fillfromDB(); // this should always be called before going to the jsp if (!comingFromAValidationError()) form.fillfromDB(); else do nothing; // leave form as is, with data entered by the user Did I make myself clearer? thank you for your answers (and for your patience!) --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
