Is chaining pageflow actions allowed?

Question

Hi,
I have 2 different actions which chain to a third action (which seperates
the common logic):
@jpf:forward name="success" path="showBookList.do"
addBookToList(BookDetailsForm form) {
// add a book
return new Forward("success");
@jpf:forward name="success" path="showBookList.do"
removeBookFromList(BookIDForm form) {
//remove a book
return new Forward("success");
@jpf:forward name="success" path="bookList.jsp"
showBookList() {
//fetch book list
return new Forward("success");
This actually works fine, but I am getting netui errors which clutter my
log:
NETUI ERROR: Unable to update expression "{actionForm.isbnPK}" with the
value [0
-13-100287-2]. The typical cause is that the object represented by the
expressi
on is not available or is the wrong type for updating.
This is apperently because for the showBookList action it tries to set the
form parameters.
return new Forward("success", null); doesnt help
Is there a way to make this false netui error dissappear?
I 've read that struts allows action chaining, so why not pageflows?
Thank you for any and all help,
Geoffrey

Hi kevin,
I am not clear with your reqirment. But if you just want to call an action in page flow A from another page flow B, then you can forward to the required action as shown below.
public class A extends PageFlowController{
* @jpf:action
* @jpf:forward name="success" path="/folder/actionB.do"
protected Forward begin()
//logic here
