Spring MVC Controller, how to keep BindingResult errors, while emptying the form values

Question

I have a web form, using Spring MVC Controller. The form is validated by Spring. When there are validation errors, Spring shows the same form, pre-filled in with the values ente

Answer 1

The simplest solution I can think of is to not use the tags. Instead use a standard tag.

For example:

    Username: 


    
    Password: 


    

In the above example the password field will remain blank at all times while still showing the validation error.
