Re: Multi-Page Wizard Validation Problem

I believe you need a form-property named 'page' with a type of 'java.lang.Integer'.

All,

Sorry if this has been discussed, I've been digging around on the web and can't seem to find a solution to my problem. I have a 3 step registration process that works like a "wizard". I defined a LookupDispatchAction subclass to handle things like the next and previous button. Everything works great except validation never gets triggered and the page variable on the form bean is always reset to zero. I have confirmed with the debugger that it is the same instance of the form bean throughout the steps. I assume the two problems are related because my validation.xml specifies page numbers greater than zero. I've attached the struts-config.xml and the validation.xml.

Any help is appreciated.
