Hi ,
Can you elaborate a bit? The situation in my mind is, a jsp page with a

Of course the a links are generate by struts. Then how could the form be
used in this case?
I can think of
Aaah...but these are not related to form actions and are more like query

I have one simple jsp form and one form and one action to take care of
it. In my /pages/form.jsp I have a html:form pointing to my do/action.

You can do either but i always use an action and forward to the jsp.
The only really objection not to routing your request through a mapping
is that you expose your jsp's to the user. But this often isn;t a
problem for some folks.
If you want to pre-populate your form then you can map the form

You could forward (not redirect) to a generic failure page if there are
