Struts validation issue

hi,
i have created my own validator class for validating certain fields 
which are
beyond the default validation scope (e.g. telephone, postcode, username 
already
exists etc.) and have linked it to the validator-rules.xml file.
when the input field is invalid, i do get the appropriate error msg so this
works ok. however, the problem is when all fields have valid input. In this
instance, the flow goes to my validator class and returns true, but 
instead of
going to the action, it returns to the original jsp page. there are no 
errors displayed,
just that it wont move to the action.
i've checked my struts-config, validator-rules and validation files and 
they are
identical to those in the 'how-to's on the struts site. the only 
difference is
that i have several struts config files, but the validator plugin is 
only in the
main struts-config.xml

i am completly stumped on this one.

cheers,

andy

Thanks, pedro

Couldnt resolve this one! upgraded to struts 1.2.4 and used a reqular 
expression to validate instead.

Not quite the method i wanted to take but one which resolved the issue.

Thanks for your contribution

  Have you checked if you aren't duplicating configurations on more than 1
file? (configFile1, ..., configFileN... N replaces configurations that are
also present (duplicate) in 1).

  Are you working with modules?
  Is the forward pointing to a correct action? (try putting validate =
false... and see if it calls the correct action)

  This is the best I can do...
