Hi ,
I think chain is not going to work for this kind of pattern. Because I think
chain will excute irrespective of what happens , even if validations pass
chain is going to call the action , which is not required in this case.
I am just wondering there should be a way where we can retreview the values
from the request like forward.
Regards
Siddiq.
