invokeAction may not work depending on (a) whether your action method returns null or no, and (b) the relative position (before or after) of the submit button. Neither makes for a good resuable component. Why not do it in takeValuesFromRequest after calling super? The validate and set logic seems more appropriate to setting values than performing an action.

I have two Strings, password and passwordRepeated within a resuable UserEdit component with a binding to "User usr" in the parent component. The usr EO has an attribute hashedPassword where the final SHA hashed password is stored. The parent component has the Submit and form for the page.

Where would I validate and compare "password" and "passwordRepeated" within the reusable component and then hash and set the EO's attribute?

(Normally I would do this on the Submit action method, but this exists in the parent. Studying Chucks book, chapter 5, I am thinking I should over-ride invokeAction, call super.invokeAction() and afterward compare my two values and throw a validation exception if different, otherwise hash and store in the EO? ... would that be the proper approach?)
