ThrowawayBean2 and session

Hi,

I am a new user of maverick. I have understood the friendbook-jsp example, but I have the following problem...

This is how my maverick.xml file looks like

<command name="index">
	<view path="index.htm" />
</command>
<command name="UCSearch">
	<controller class="com.uc.ctl.UseCaseSearch" />
	<view name="success" path="UCSearch.jsp" scope="session"/>
</command>
<command name="UseCase">
	<controller class="com.uc.ctl.UseCaseManage" />
	<view name="success" path="UseCase.jsp"/>
</command>
<command name="UCSave">
	<controller class="com.uc.ctl.UseCaseSave" />
	<view name="success" path="UCSearch.m"/>
</command>

all the controller classes are extended from ThrowawayBean2.

When I click a link on the index.htm file (href="UCSearch.m"), the UCSearch.jsp page is displayed which has few text boxes and drop down as filters for search. I have the logic in the perform() method of the UseCaseSearch controller to populate the drop down. 
Once I click search on the UCSearch page the  page is submitted (UCSearch.m). I have a hidden variable set to true, the controller in the perform() reads the hidden variable and populates a collection of UseCase objects. since its the same controller whatever filter criteria's I had selected in the first place are displayed along with the search result.
Then I select a UseCase (UseCaseManage.m) and go to the UseCase.jsp page, to edit a use case. On the edit page I have a save button, submits to (UseCaseSave.m), the UseCaseSave controller saves the changed use case in db.
The problem is returning back to the original search page after the save and having the page remember the filter criterias.
If i have the maverick file as above  <view name="success" path="UCSearch.m"/> then it displays an error since the UseCaseSave controller's getter's and setter's are not the same as of the UseCaseSearch controller. Secondly, if I use type="redirect", then it displays the page with empty text boxes, and also the url looks like http://localhost:8080/uc/UCsave.m

What is my workaround with this, to keep things in session. I have not looked into the FormBeanUser controller. Is there a way to define the formbean for a controller in the maverick.xml ? Can someone post a good example using FormBeanUser controller along with how to setup the maverick.xml file.
Is it necessary to know struts to learn the usage of FormBeanUser??

Thanks,
Deo
