Is it not possible to not use a form at all?
Section 1.3 of the user guide says: "At a minimum, a mapping must specify (1) a
request path and (2) the object type to act upon the request.".
However when I try leaving off the form name in config file, and in html:form
tag, I get an error.
I can obviously get around it by just using the regular html <form> tag, but
would like to keep everything consistant (the reason I don't need a form, is
that my action creates performs a download).
Cheers for any help,
Dave

In that case you can just use any old actionformobject and asssociate it,
what you will then use out of the mapping in the config file is only the
action, and just ignore the actionform.
<action path="/logon"
type="com.didata.itax.payment.web.action.LoginAction"
name="any dummy actionform"
scope="request"
input="/logon.jsp">
<forward name="failure" path="/index.html"/>
<forward name="success" path="/login.jsp"/>
<forward name="loggedOut" path="/logon.jsp" />
<forward name="buildLeftFrame" path="/leftframe.html"
redirect="true" />
<forward name="changePassword"
path="/loginForceChangePassword.jsp"/>
</action>

Subject: Linking HREF with Action
Hi all,
I just wanted to know if it's possible to define an Action in the Struts
config XML file that would be called from an HTML link (html:link tag) that
IS NOT within a form ?
I tried but it seems that the framework needs an ActionForm bean associated
with each Action.
Any idea, comments ?
Thanks for your help.
