Michael, There is no issue with bookmarking. Where the app currently responds to:
/viewXXXdetail.jsp?scid=23 The Struts version will respond in the same way to: /viewXXXdetail.do?scid=23 Even for viewing data, you will want to use an ActionForm. In the example URL above, you'll want a property to hold the 'scid'. The same ActionForm should also properties for all the detail information about the item that will be shown by the JSP. -Max On Tue, 2004-02-17 at 15:18, Michael Steiger wrote: > Hello list, > this is my first Struts project, so I hope to get some answers and/or > hints for my problems.
