Struts Config Problem - Ryan Norman

[Ryan Norman]

Hi All,

I am Ryan Norman

I am trying to put together a simple sample application. 
Right now I have a login page upon submitting the user name and password I want it to 
be transferred
to another page.

For some reason, it is not working.

Can somebody help me with this?

I am pasting my code and struts-config.xml file contents.

Thanks in advance

<!--
     This is a blank Struts configuration file based on the example application,
     with commented examples of some items.

     NOTE: If you have a generator tool to create the corresponding Java classes
     for you, you could include the details in the "form-bean" declarations.
     Otherwise, you would only define the "form-bean" element itself, with the
     corresponding "name" and "type" attributes, as shown here.
