You need to embed the source information in contact.jsp. Depending on how
your Action classes are set up, you could do one of two things:
1) Use a hidden field on contact.jsp which identifies the source. Then when
the form is submitted, your Action class can use that to select an
appropriate forward. Using the name of the forward as the value of the
hidden field would make this very simple.
2) Dynamically set the action attribute on the <html:form> tag when
contact.jsp is processed, setting up the appropriate target for the page.
Hope this helps.

Subject: Referer pages and structs
Hi, I'm wondering whether Structs can be used to solve the following
problem elegantly.
I have a page, say contact.jsp that has two standard actions associated
to it: EditContactAction, SaveContactAction.
This page can be linked from many other pages. What I'd like is to go
back to the page that called contact.jsp.
For example, if page1 has a link to contact.jsp, after the user clicked
the link, then press the save button on the
contact.jsp, I'd like the next page to be page1. Similarly for all other
pages linking to contact.jsp. Is there a way to code
contact.jsp to automatically have this behavior?
Thanks.
Shunhui
