clear vs. reset
When a session ends, all data submitted have to be
cleared.
My form bean is in a session. I want to re-use the
submitted data during the session.
It seems that if I have the 'reset' method in my form
bean, the submitted data are lost when I want to
re-use the data.
What are the differences between the 'clear' method
and the 'reset' method?
Thanks for your advice.

My simple explanation
Reset is supposed to reset all of the form fields to their original default values
Clear is supposed to clear all of the form fields
Anyone else?

Caroline-
I can't speak for clear vs. reset, but if you look at the default
implementation of reset(...), it doesn't do anything - you have to
override it in your form bean to have it do anything.
However, if you want to persist the data, you can set an attribute on
the session and it will be available everywhere.
Hope that helps.
