Hi, Thanks for your reply.
I felt it not a good design to disable server side validation as well. The struts application (intranet application) I am adding validation to was not properly designed. A lot of jsps need beans passed from actions to display correctly. Since those beans are defined as request attributes, they will be lost when validation fails and the jsp is reloaded. So to use server side validation I have to do preparation for loading all those jsps in custom validator classes. At the beginning I started learning struts, I was thinking if the struts validator could reload the submission page correctly and automatically, keeping all objects and states needed. I am very new to struts, so forgive me if that is a stupid idea. But thank you very much for your reply!
