I don't understand why there needs to be a special setting just to accomplish this?

Actually, you can make it redirect, but this affects the whole application, since you need to make change in <controller> element: <controller inputForward="true"/> Then you will need to refer a <forward> element in your "input" property: <action ... input = "itemError"> ... <forward name="itemError" path="/displayError.do" redirect="true"/> </action> Because this involves a regular <forward> element anyway, I think that "input" in its current state does not make much sense. We can simply have a designated <forward> for input errors, with predefened mapping name, like ERROR_INPUT: <action> ... <forward name="ERROR_INPUT" path="/displayError.do" redirect="true"/> </action> This will also allow to have several error handlers, with names starting on "ERROR_" or something. Just a thought. Michael.
