Yah, that is way messier than I am looking for :)

I've pulled that trick on 1 or 2 other of the session forms I have. This one
is a bit different, and it doesn't really work as a feature on the form
unfortunatley.

Here is the chain of events, maybe that will help
Form Preloader -> Form Page -> Submit Action -> Form Preloader -> Form Page
In Submit Action, I have tried doing session.removeAttribute("myForm"); and
it doesn't work (gives the beanutils.populate error). I have also tried
looping through the form data and setting all the variables to have the
default data instead of the selected data, but that doesn't seem to work (no
error, just leaves the selected values on the form instead of the default
values). I have also message around with form.reset() and form.initialize(),
and neither seems to do the trick.
(These are DynaValidatorForms btw)
