Hi all, How abt throwing MalformedURLException in the service method inside action class?? Than no need to do validation in action form?? Is it correct?? Help??

You can do this directly with the validator framework if you're using it, or later from the action. 2) Open a java.io or java.nio connection to that url to check that it is valid. Look into File and/or InputStream for more info on how to do this. You should never put any logic in the form bean itself (it should remain a plain dumb form bean). Put this code in a library and make a call to it from your action. -- If education is too expensive, try ignorance.
