In your action class, write a method like so:
public String input() {
// populate my dropdowns
return Action.INPUT;
}Obviously you will have to write the code to populate your dropdowns there, as that depends on what you are up to. But the input() method of your action class will be called if validation fails, so if you have things that you want to make sure occur on validation failure, put them there. jk On Mon, Mar 2, 2009 at 1:30 PM, Sundararaman, Anand < anand.sundarara...@ps.net> wrote: > Hi, > Would you able to specify in little more detail?
