Hi Ryan,
Most of the frameworks available are very similar to Struts. The only
difference is that they tie you into the specific app server in most cases.
Also as they are only used by a subset of developers that use the specific
app server their user base and hence experience base will be much
. For starters, Struts is vendor-neutral. What happens if you decide to
migrate an app developed with WebSphere's framework to JBoss?
. I am using Struts with Weblogic. I don't believe I'm in the vanguard with
this.
Cheers,

WebLogic, etc. They may not port from one app server to another. Struts
should run in any JSP/Servlet spec-compliant web container. With proprietary
frameworks, you risk getting precisely what many hope to avoid by

using struts and WebLogic. We have saved a tremendous amount of time by
implementing struts as our framework. You should not be looking at this
as struts and Tomcat versus Web Sphere and ? You should look at this as
