OK, that unfortunately makes this all a bit more odd. I do this kind of
thing a lot and I don't believe I've run into this problem yet. Mind you
I'm also certain I haven't used a file upload in this context before so
perhaps you're on to something with your suspicion that that could have
something to do with it. Have you tried setting both forms with the same
enctype even though it's obviously not needed on one? Also, are both
forms being submitted with post at all times, even when going "back"?
Someone mentioned previously that IE can be a bit over-zealous when it
comes to caching if you use get so it would be no harm to rule that
problem out.
Not sure that's a lot of help but it's the best I can come up with at
2:20 AM!

Navigation between the 2 pages is done by submitting a request to the
server...there are 2 methods in the action ...stage1() and stage2()
which are invoked to move back and forth. I am pretty sure that the
form is in session scope. Like I mentioned before, this works with FF
and Netscape..having issues with IE.
One thing, on the second page, we allow the user to upload files as
part of the customer set up process..the form tag looks like
<html:form action="/CustomerManager" enctype="multipart/form-data">
Could the enctype attribute be a problem??
Please let me know what other information I can provide to help you
understand the problem better..appreciate your help.

Hi,
When you say "go back" what exactly do you mean? HOW are you going
back? Are you relying on the browser's back button? If yes then
that's your problem straight off. Don't do that. Use Struts forms for
holding your Data and the struts JSP tags for creating the form. Make
sure the form is in session scope and get back to the page with a
call to the server and all should be well. If that's what you are
doing and it's not working then something funnier is a foot and
you'll need to give us a lot more details if we're to have any chance
at all of helping.

We have a wizard style customer set up process that is spread out
over 2 pages. The scope of the form is session (action definition is
shown below)
In firefox and netscape, when we fill out some data on page 1
(stage1) and then move to page2 (stage2), the data in page 1 is
retained (this can be confirmed by going back to page 1 before we
even save the info).
But in IE, when I go from page 1 to page 2, and then back to page
1..all the data previously entered is lost.
Not sure why IE is behaving this way. FF and Netscape seem to be
fine...
Please help..
Thanks,
