Actually I didn't find the Struts example app using the token stuff too
well. Maybe the example has changed though since it's been a while since
I looked at, but way back when I didn't find it too helpful.
Here's how I use it....
In your action or dispatch that is called right before you end up
fowarding to your form you do this:
saveToken( request );
Then in your action that is doing your save/update you need to check
that this token is valid so that you don't have a duplicate
update/insert... so you do...
if ( isTokenValid( request ) ) {
//do your save/update whatever
bean.save();
//reset the token
resetToken(ae.getReq());
//save new token back in request
saveToken(ae.getReq() );
}
else // save an error message that they are trying a duplicate entry by
hitting refresh, forward to an error page or back to the form
I'm not sure if the above it the way other people, smarter than myself,
do it, but it works for me.

Like David said, you'll have to do this manually if you don't use the
form tag. Use the form tag! (Why aren't you using it??:)
