OK, so let me see if I understand what you are saying:
the tag <html:form action="/someAction"> will trigger FormTag.doStartTag(),
which will append ".do" if no extension was specified. I guess it looks
first to see if if extension mapping is being used vs. path (???) mapping?
Maybe I should go review the tag's java source... :)
Thanks,
Troy

Then struts html:form tag is processed
if the action name does not have
a .do at the end, one will be appended so when
it is sent out to the browser it will
always see a 'XXX.do' present.
