Hello - I'm new to the Struts architecture, and am writing a small application to teach myself. I've got the basic concepts and simple design patterns, but am having a problem trying to structure part of my presentation logic in a "struts-like" way. I'd like to build up part of a page by including the results from another action, called dynamically.
Here's what I've got: <form-beans> <form-bean name="ParentForm" type="my.ParentForm" /> <form-bean name="ChildForm" type="my.ChildForm" /> </form-beans> <global-forwards> <forward name="showParent" path="/parent.do" redirect="false" /> <forward name="includeChild" path="/child.do?action=show" redirect="false" /> </global-forwards> <action-mappings> <action path="/parent" type="my.ParentAction" name="ParentForm"> <forward name="success" path="/parent.jsp" redirect="false" /> </action> <action path="/child" type="my.ChildAction" name="ChildForm"> <forward name="show" path="/child.jsp" /> </action> </action-mappings> Where parent.do and it's corresponding form take some parameters, do some logic, and forward to parent.jsp for display. However, I would also like to include child.do, but want to pass it some additional parameter foo=bar when including it. I've already set up some of that information (action=show) in the global forward, but how do I wrap up additional parameters for an include. I've seen how to *link* to this with (for example): <html:link forward="includeChild" paramId="foo" paramName="ParentForm" paramProperty="foo" /> but am looking for the same kind of functionality to do includes. I can get _something_ to work with <jsp:include page="/child.do?action=show&foo=bar" /> but this still isn't either 1) building it dynamically or 2) very "struts-like" since I'm not taking advantage of my global forward configuration for the action=show. I'm open to using jsp methods, struts, templates, whatever. I'm just learning, but can't find this one. If someone could point me in the right direction (or tell me how my design is wrong anyway and it would be better to do it like ..xyz...) it would be greatly appreciated.
