A patch recently went into the various flavours of validator forms which split out the logic which determines the validation "key" into a separate method - so if you look at the current versions of either ValidatorActionForm or DynaValidatorActionForm - they now only contain a very simple getValidationKey(request, mapping) method.
http://cvs.apache.org/viewcvs.cgi/jakarta-struts/src/share/org/apache/struts/validator/ I use a version of DynaValidatorActionForm which removes the leading "/" - for Adam's problem (where he has "/esurvey/survey/update") he could do that and replace the other slashes with underscores: public class MyDynaValidatorActionForm extends DynaValidatorForm implements DynaBean, Serializable { public String getValidationKey(ActionMapping mapping, HttpServletRequest request) { mapping.getPath().substring(1).replace('/', '_'); } } Then, in validation.xml <formset> <form name="esurvey_survey_update"> <field ..........> </form> and on the jsp page: <html:javascript formName="esurvey_survey_update"/> If you can't use the latest build of struts, then copy the validate() method which calls getValidationKey() - when the next proper "release" of struts comes out, you can then delete the validate() method just leaving getValidationKey().
