Hello All,

I have a small struts 1 application which when executed using ActionForm runs fine but when i use DynaActionForm or DynaValidatorForm i get an error.
I want to display the values entered in one jsp by user in other jsp.
I am using ${addContactForm.fname} in jsp to retrieve the value entered by user in form addContactForm and field fname, but i get the error :-

javax.servlet.ServletException: org.apache.jasper.JasperException: javax.el.PropertyNotFoundException: Property 'fname' not found on type org.apache.struts.action.DynaActionForm

Various files used are as follows:
