+ <p>
+ Struts is mainly a server-side technology.
+ We bundled in some JSP tags to expose the framework components to your
+ presentation page, but past that, the usual development process applies.
+ </p>
+
+ <p>
+ Interactive pages require the use of Javascript.
+ (That's why it was invented.)
+ If you want things popping up or doing this when they click that,
+ you are outside the scope of Struts and back into the web
+ development mainstream.
+ </p>
+
+ <p>
+ You use Javascript with Struts the same way you use with any presentation
+ page.
+ Since Javascript is a client-side technology, you can use simple relative
+ references to your scripts.
+ If you need to fire a Javascript from a HTML control, the Struts HTML tags
+ have properties for the Javascript events.
+ </p>

+ A very good Javascript resource is Matt Kruse's site at
