well, the problem is because my Action can be arrived at from different places. and upon requesting for my Action if there are validation errors i want to return the user back to where they came from. i'm not sure about what you suggested.. i don't know what you mean by multi-page forms and validation based on the page number.. are you talking about putting flags on the html form that i can use upon submit to decide what to validate? i can do that, but how can i instruct the Struts ActionForm.validate() mechanism to go somewhere else other than the Action definition input attribute value? > > > > > woodchuck > > > > > > --- Hubert Rabago <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > > > > See > > http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=struts-user&m=109302108205069&w=2 > > > > > > On Wed, 25 Aug 2004 09:56:01 -0700 (PDT), Woodchuck > > > <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > > > hihi, > > > > > > > > i'm using Struts' built-in ActionForm validation mechanism, and > it > > > > works fine.
