exception with automatic formbean population

Hi All,

I use a formbean that retrieves information passed in a form, like this :

public class InfoFormBean extends StrutsCXValidatorForm {
..
    private final Map values = new HashMap();

    public void setValue(String key, Object value) {
        logger.debug("key:"+key);
        values.put(key, value);
    }

    public Object getValue(String key) {
        
        return values.get(key);
    }
..
}

##and my form looks like :
<form ...>
<input name="value(key1)" 
        type="text" />
<input name="value(prop1)" 
        type="text" /> ...
</form>


##The formbean is populated alright. The associated action is called and execute is code also.
##But after the action executes its forward to another page, I get the following exception :

2004-01-10 22:04:02,158 DEBUG - [StrutsCXStandardDocumentBuilder] CONSTRUCT request Parameter: action = UPDATE
2004-01-10 22:04:02,158 DEBUG - [StrutsCXStandardDocumentBuilder] CONSTRUCT request Parameter: value(key1) = townname
MonitorFilter::Error: The name "value(key2)" is not legal for JDOM/XML elements: XML names cannot contain the character "(".
MonitorFilter::A web application object caused an exception
MonitorFilter::org.jdom.IllegalNameException: The name "value(key2)" is not legal for JDOM/XML elements: XML names cannot contain the character "(".
        at org.jdom.Element.setName(Element.java:217)
        at org.jdom.Element.<init>(Element.java:145)
        at org.jdom.Element.<init>(Element.java:158)
        etc....

##I tried to reset the formbean before doing the forward, but the error is exactly the same.
I do not need this information (value(key2)) anymore at that time. 
How could I get rid of that ?

Thanks in advance.
Emmanuel
