After several form submissions and a DB update, the first Action attempts to clear the values in MBForm: request.getSession().setAttribute("MBForm", null); after this, control is forwarded to the second Action which handles the display. it checks to see if MBForm is null and, if it is, it fills MBForm from a DB. in between these two actions, the controller servlet is automatically refilling the MBForm with the values that I just nullified.. the only bean property that stays empty is myHash which represents several groups of multiboxes. i believe this is a result of the MBForm reset() method which contains the following: myHash.put(multiBoxCategories, new Integer[0]); //resets several groups of multiboxes setting other properties to null in the reset() method is not the solution as it wipes the value out after every (but somehow it doesn't do the same thing to the multiboxes?!?) let me know if this enough background for you to help me diagnose the problem.. any discussion of reset() or is welcome.. thanks --------------------------------------------------------------------- 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]
