You can create new ActionForwards within the Action, and paste on your parameters. Personally, I would put another Action in front of viewForum.jsp, so that it expects whatever dyndamic data it needs to be passed in a bean through the request, rather taken from a dynamic (and possibily

There are probably numerous ways this can be done. If you just want to easily capture the output from a single page, you could simply make that page an included page and use the bean:include tag to capture it's output. i.e. make the requested page include the real page via the bean:include tag.
