Richard,
Thanks for the suggestion.
An action is already defined in struts-config.xml with two 'forward'
definitions - 'success' and 'failure'. Is there an 'initialize' forward?

It is because the action class execute method is only executed when the
form is submitted, not when it is displayed. If you want to pre-load the
form, you need to create an action and either forward or redirect to the
action which then forwards to the page that displays the form.
