That certainly isn't what I would expect to happen, but it does not appear
to be the fault of Stripes. I set up an ActionBean like you describe in a
test app and got the same results you did. When I hooked up a debugger to
look at UrlBindingFactory.getBinding(..), I stepped into
HttpUtil.getRequestedPath(..) and found that the value returned by
request.getServletPath() is not "/web/article////add" but "/web/article/add".
It seems the servlet container does us a "favor" by collapsing multiple
slashes in the path to a single one.
One might be inclined to use request.getRequestURI() instead, but that
causes even bigger problems. See here for a little bit of history:

<http://www.stripesframework.org/jira/browse/STS-575>I'm not sure there's
much we can do about this.

Beautiful is writing same markup. Internet Explorer 9 supports
standards for HTML5, CSS3, SVG 1.1, ECMAScript5, and DOM L2 & L3.
