Thanks for your help. I ended up doing something similar to this. I had
intended to package the request info into the Order beans and then forward
to a servlet to do some database checking. So I reversed the order a bit
and POST to the servlet, have it construct the beans, attach them to the
session, do validation, then forward to a JSP to respond to the user.
Seems to work well and since I'm still learning tablib support in JSP I'm not
as comfortable with that kind of solution.
Again, many thanks.
