But is that for Request Scope forms as well? Can I say something like
request.setAttribute( myFormName, this) in the validate() method and
have the page recognize the form bean and populate the fields?
There are basically two actions:
<action
path="/executeSearchResults"
type=" ExecuteLenderSearchAction"
scope="request"
name="searchForm"
validate="true"
parameter="search"
input=".search"/>
<action
path="/search"
type="org.apache.struts.actions.ForwardAction"
parameter=".search"/>
When the /search Page is submitted, the searchForm validate() is called.
When it fails, I need to put the searchForm back into the request so
that it can return to the /search page. But if that happened, would the
values be populated because there is the searchForm object in the
request?

Yes.
As long as your mappings are correct (and they would be if you're
already
seeing the behavior you described), Struts will preserve the values in
case
of a validation error and allow the user to correct the mistakes.
