strutshtml:form name issue

[Da...@vwr.com]

Hello,

I am using struts 1.0. I am upgrading my app from tomcat 3.2.3 to 5.5.9. I
am using java 1.4.0.

I have the following in the jsp

<strutshtml:form action="/xxx/enter.do">
    <strutshtml:hidden name="loginForm" property="actionType" value
="enter"/>
    <strutshtml:hidden name="loginForm" property="organization" value="
<%=orgID%>"/>
    <strutshtml:hidden name="loginForm" property="showChildRecords"/>
</strutshtml:form>

<jsp:include page="includes/functions.js" flush="true"/>
<strutshtml:form action="/xxx/EntryB2BOptions.do">
...
</strutshtml:form>

which worked fine on 3.2.3. I coped the war file directly to 5.5.9

and the second form now renders with the form name of the first.

<form name="loginForm" method="POST" action="/path/xxx/enter.do">
    <input type="hidden" name="actionType" value="enter">
    <input type="hidden" name="organization" value="XXXXXXX">
    <input type="hidden" name="showChildRecords" value="false">
</form>

<bunch of javascript>

<form name="loginForm" method="POST" action="/path/xxx/EntryB2BOptions.do">
...
</form>

the mapping looks like this

        <action    path="/xxx/EntryB2BOptions"
               type="com.xxx.web.action.EntryB2BOptionsAction"
               name="entryB2BOptionsForm"
               scope="request"
               input="/vwr/error.jsp">
               <forward name="success"      path
="/xxx/B2BOptionsInput2.jsp"/>
               <forward name="toAddCustomer"    path
="/xxx/CustomerLoginsInput2.jsp"/>
           <forward name="others"   path="/xxx/enter.do?actionType=enter"/>

        </action>

and

        <action    path="/xxx/enter"
               type="com.xxx.web.action.IndexAction"
               name="loginForm"
               scope="request"
               input="/vwr/error.jsp">
               <forward name="success" path
="/xxx/EntryB2BOptionsInput2.jsp"/>
        </action>


What in the world could be the reason for this?

In my projects, those two match exactly.  For example:
  <action    path="/editContact"
  <html-el:form action="/editContact">

I've never paid any attention to what 'name' attribute is used in the <form> 
tag, nor do I have more than one form per page, but try taking the ".do" out 
of the <html:form> tags and see if anything changes.

Also, is the 'xxx' a module name, or is it the context name?  If it's the 
name of the context, AFAIK you can leave it out.
