Thanks for your help, Hubert

If so, it is: <Context path="/" reloadable="true" docBase="C:\Program Files\eclipse\workspace\GeoViz_Server" workDir="C:\Program Files\eclipse\workspace\GeoViz_Server\work" /> > -> What URL does your browser show when you're on the form that doesn't > submit, just before you submit it? http://localhost:8080/NewProjectStart.do > -> What URL is shown right after you submit? http://newprojectid.do - after trying it again here, that's actually the first time I've been able to catch that! Interesting...why is it missing out my server...and why is it all in lowercase? I haven't changed any of the defaults in my server.xml file. > -> How is your ActionServlet declared and mapped in your web.xml? My Action Servlet is mapped as: <servlet> <servlet-name>action</servlet-name> <servlet-class>com.GeoViz.util.ExtendedActionServlet</servlet-class> <init-param> <param-name>config</param-name> <param-value>/WEB-INF/struts-config.xml</param-value> </init-param> <load-on-startup>1</load-on-startup> </servlet> Where all the ExtendedActionServlet class does is check that the user is logged in. When the html:form tag has been expanded with "//" at the beginning, my breakpoint in this class is never hit - it doesn't even get to this point. > -> What version of Struts are you using? I'm using Struts 1.1 > -> Are the fields showing up properly? [Actual question here is: Is Struts > really finding your Action/ActionForm mapping correctly?] Yes, on the pages that work, it is. For example - on the page before the one that fails, I do have some form fields that a pre-populated, and that data is shown correctly. thanks, Claire > > --- Claire Suttle <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Yeah, I've actually already tried adding the slash into the html:form tag. > > It doesn't actually make any difference.
