my apologies, i'm still not sure about your suggestion here but i'll
look into it. i don't know what a ValidatorForm is as i'm not using it,
and i think this is the problem.. i'm just using the old plain jane
vanilla struts validation mechanism (i just extend from ActionForm, not
from ValidatorForm..)..

yes, this is something i tend to keep forgetting. and making a new
action mapping for each different originating location (while using the
same classes) would do the trick nicely.
thanks a lot, Jim!
