Hello, careful with the "parameter" if you're using DispatchAction in your application: it's _reserved_ in that case as it's related to determining the method to call on your Action (check out the DispatchAction doc for more info).
For example, if your Action looks like MyAction extends DispatchAction +init(...) +createRecord(..) +updateRecord(..) the mapping.getParameter() will need to identify the request variable (eg "command") that indicates what method to call. If you set in struts-config.xml "parameter=command" then Strus will check in the request parameters: "command=init" will call MyAction.init(...) "command=createRecord" will call MyAction.createRecord(...) and so on... HTH Thanks.
