I started with struts about a week ago. I went through the documentation. Still I could not understand some portions of struts. Can somebody explain me the following: . Dissection of this tag. <!-- Add User action --> <action path="/addUser" type="strutstest1.SystemUserAction" name="userForm" scope="request" input="/admin/dsp_User.jsp" validate="false"> <forward name="success" path="/admin/dsp_User.jsp"/> <forward name="failure" path="/admin/search/dsp_SearchUser.jsp"/> </action> . What am I achieving by giving the validate="false" in the above tag. . Dissection of this tag <form-bean name="userForm" type="strutstest1.SystemUserForm" /> What is the association of of the <html:form action="XXXXX"> with the <action> tag.
