Handling Multiple pages in spring MVC

Question

I am new bee to SpringMVC and trying to implement this example in SpringMVC3. http://www.mkyong.com/spring-mvc/spring-mvc-handling-multipage-forms-with-abstractwizardformcontroller/ When I submit first Jsp I am able to go to next Jsp but after submitting the second Jsp it is redirecting back to first Jsp with a new Jsp(empty values). Please suggest with comments to make it more clear for me to understand.

Project

  @Id
  @Column(name="PROJECT_ID")
  @GeneratedValue(strategy=GenerationType.AUTO)
  private int projectId;

  @Column(name="PROJECT_NAME")
  private String projectName;

  @Column(name="LOCATION")
  private String location;

  @Column(name="DESCRIPTION")
  private String description;

  @Column(name="DEV_TYPE")
  private String developmentType;

ProjectService

    public void addProject(Project project);

ProjectServiceImpl

   @Autowired
   private ProjectDao projectDao;

    public void addProject(Project project) {
    projectDao.addProject(project);
    }

ProjectDao

   public void addProject(Project project);

ProjectDaoImpl

   public void addProject(Project project) {
     getCurrentSession().save(project);     
    }

ProjectController

    @RequestMapping(value = "/addProject.htm", method = RequestMethod.GET)
    public ModelAndView reportForm(ModelMap model, HttpServletRequest request,
        Project project) {
    model.addAttribute("project", project);
    ModelAndView mav = new ModelAndView("add");
    return mav;
    }

    @RequestMapping(value = "/addProject.htm", method = RequestMethod.POST)
    public ModelAndView addConfirm(@ModelAttribute("project") Project project,
                   BindingResult result, ModelMap model, SessionStatus status, HttpServletRequest request) {
           HttpSession session = request.getSession();
           validator.validateProject(project, result);
                if (result.hasErrors()) {
                      return new ModelAndView("addProject");
                   } else if (project.getDescription() == null) {
                           //return the form that will set field two's value
                           return new ModelAndView("addProjectExt");
                   } //and so on for all the other field that need to be set...
          else{
        model.addAttribute("project", project);
        projectService.addProject(project);
    return "redirect:listProject";
        }
        }

JSP1 addProject.jsp

            <form:form method="POST" modelAttribute="project" action="addProject.htm" >
            <div class="input">

                    <form:label path="projectName" type="text" value="" >Project Name :*</form:label>
                    <form:input path="projectName"/>

                    <form:input path="location"/>               
                   </div>
               </form:form>

                    <form:input path="developmentType"/>                
                </div>
              </form:form>

Answer 1

Please try with @SessionAttribute("project")

and use targets for submit button in JSPs, so that controller knows and differentiate between next button and submit button.
