http://nagoya.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=15921 Allow relative actions in struts-config.xml ------- Additional Comments From [EMAIL PROTECTED] 2003-02-05 08:41 ------- The new patch is more comprehensive than the old one. In addition to applying a check for relative URLs in the struts-config.xml file, the behaviour of the FormTag tags must change too. Current behaviour of FormTag is rather simplistic: If a relative action "foo" is specified in FormTag, a slash is prepended to form the path (ie "/foo") and "/foo" is checked against struts-config.xml. The new behaviour applies the relative URL "foo" against the current absolute path as passed by the browser. Thus, if the struts page "/bar/yack/index.do" containing the FormTag action "foo" is referenced, the resultant path becomes "/bar/yack/foo.do", and this path is then tested against struts-config.xml. What this allows you to do is to allow the browser to keep state. For example, if you have a registration page which appears in many places in a website, eg at /bar/registration and /foo/registration. If the FormTag action is set to post to "registration", the resultant path will become "/bar/registration" and "/foo/registration" respectively. Thus: the registration page no longer needs to be aware of where it sits within the URL space. The different locations of registration need only be specified in struts-config.xml, giving the layout of tiles on the page, but nothing else. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
