struts validation

I have a struts-JSP (say main.jsp) with a FORM which includes another JSP (page1.jsp) with a FORM.

I validate the page1.jsp FORM through struts-validation.xml

The problem is if i get any validation errors, i am getting only the page1.jsp with errors. I want to show the main.jsp even if there are any validation errors in page1.jsp.

As expected, if there are no errors, main.jsp is displyed.

i know how to do validation in my Form-Action but i want to use struts-validator. Can i do something with ValidatorActionForm in my Action class. If so, could you please tell me how?

Any suggestions?

This attribute 'input' is the page to return when error detected by struts validator.
Example:
<action path="/main"
      type="SomeAction"
      name="someForm"
      validate="true"
      input="/main.jsp"
      scope="request">

What do you mean by "Can i do something with ValidatorActionForm in my Action class. If so, could you please tell me how?"?

I mean we use 'ValidatorForm' in form-bean to override the the existing validate() method of form-beans with struts validator.

I dont know about 'ValidatorActionForm' ... Is it the similar to 'ValidatorForm', but for form-action class?
