Populating a new form in the action and adding it into the session?

[acorona <ac...@objectwave.com>]

I have "search.jsp" which uses a "SearchForm" and a "SearchAction".
Once the user enters the search criteria, the "SearchAction" class takes 
the entered data from the "SearchForm". The "SearchAction" then performs 
my DB query.

Once I get the query results I'd like to display the results in a 
"details_editor.jsp" which uses the "DetailsForm" and the 
"SaveChangesAction".
So, in order to do this, within my "SearchAction,  I create an instance 
of my "DetailsForm", add it to the session and then return my forward 
info. This way the "DetailsForm" is prepopulated with the results from 
my query.

Now my question...Is this the right thing to do? I don't like the fact 
that I'm keeping the "DetailsForm" in the session...

Thanks in advance for your suggestions and comments.

Regards,
Alberto Corona
