Description

simple form with multiple submit buttons, each going to a different action mapping (or method) works fine, for example:

<s:form action="UpdateDocument" method="post">
<s:submit title="Unpublish" method="unpublish" />
<s:submit title="Publish" method="publish" />
</s:form>

Attempt to change the form to use a multipart/form-data enctype (Which is important as we will be adding a file upload to this form), i.e.:

<s:form action="UpdateDocument" method="post" enctype="multipart/form-data">
<s:submit title="Unpublish" method="unpublish" />
<s:submit title="Publish" method="publish" />
</s:form>

The first button press is working fine but subsequent button press for submitting the page is not working. It throws NULL pointer exception as none of the data objects are getting submitted again.
