Yes Vic Cekvenich ,
it's working. Now I have made three different entries in struts-config.xml
file for calling same Action class
<action path="/clientregnew"
type="com.rapideffect.pms.server.ClientRegistrationAction" >
</action>
<action path="/clientreg"
type="com.rapideffect.pms.server.ClientRegistrationAction"
name="clientReg"
scope="request"
input="/client.jsp" >
</action>
<action path="/clientregexisting"
type="com.rapideffect.pms.server.ClientRegistrationAction"
name="clientReg"
scope="request"
input="/client.jsp"
validate="false">
</action>
This way it is working perfectly
