Caching the data for errors

[sreenath reddy]

Hi

I have a problem how shall I achieve this with out storing the data in session scope���Through my action I will retrieve some data form DB and come to a jsp and display the results(These results are in request scope) and in this page I have a button for performing different action .i want to handle the errors and its must to show the errors back to the same page from where he has clicked that button.

In my action I will add an ActionError and I will say return new ActionForward(mapping.getInput()) to throw back to the same page but the Data (which I display earlier wont be there) �������how can I persist this with out storing the earlier data in session

And is there any way of caching the data in that jsp���������

If you want to cache data in a jsp, your only option is with hidden input fields. JSPs are just dynamic html pages.

Otherwise you have to store it in session or make a second DB call for the second request.
