Hi Greg.
I am running Struts2; sorry I did not include that.
The button is not causing a redirect; tt is invoking the "execute" method in
the action class, and then the action class determines that button was
pressed, and then returns the string "list", which the struts.xml file then
uses to redirect to another action class. Except that never happens because
the validation is done first.

Are you running Struts 1 or 2?
How is your button causing a redirect?
