Struts field error doesn't work properly

Question

I am validating a form using XML validation. When I submit this with an empty field, an error message pops out. If I resubmit the form without filling the field appropriately, another error will pop on top of the first error. Next, if I fill the field with data; the error messages will still not disappear and the form will not submit.

As you can see, the validator adds errors to fields as these are empty.

Next, I have filled the 'Name' field and submitted the form again. As you can see, the field error is still on top of 'Name' field and another error appeared on top of 'Surname' field.

validation.xml

<validators>

<field name="name">
    <field-validator type="requiredstring">
        <message>Name is required!</message>
    </field-validator>

</field>

<field name="surname">
    <field-validator type="requiredstring">
        <message>Surname is required!</message>
    </field-validator>
</field>

</validators>

Post the relevant parts of the JSP and the struts.xml with the Interceptor Stack you are using — Andrea Ligios, Sep 26 '14 at 09:26

You don't provide enough information to help. My first guess in situations like this is that you're using Spring, manually configuring the actions, and using default scope or explicitly singleton scope. That is wrong. — Dave Newton, Sep 26 '14 at 13:40
Dave thank you, the problem is that I did not declare scope="prototype" to my action bean. Thank you my friend. — Bravo, Sep 26 '14 at 19:48
@DaveNewton I guess that comment should be turned into an answer :) — Andrea Ligios, Sep 27 '14 at 23:33
