Well, I'm using Struts 1.3.5 and DynaValidatorForm + validation.xml for validation. We resolved the issue Friday, by performing some additional steps. Instead of using DynaValidatorForm, we created our own class which extends DynaValidatorForm. After we call the validate-method, and it fails, we add a new object to the request of the page. It seems that, after you call "validate", a new request for the page is being sent, so if you don't add a new object to it, it "forgets" all those values.
If there are other solutions, please, feel free to share them.

How are you handling validation? We will need more details about your setup and configuration to diagnose this. It sounds like you're doing a redirect after validation, otherwise the request shouldn't get cleared.
