Hi, I've been using struts for a while now (by my standards).
I prefer for all of my forwards to redirect - for two reasons: 1) Because it keeps the browser's location bar up-to-date; 2) To stop one action (accidentally) processing request parameters intended for a previous action. For example, I tend to use a "cancel" parameter, in my forms or pages, to indicate (to the action) that the user wishes to go back up a level. If I did not redirect, then this "cancel" parameter would still be there when the request reaches this upper level action (causing it too to go back up a level... and so on.). This all worked fine, until I reached this dilemma: I have an Action class called ControlAction which handles all actions related to control (of a hypothetical software agent). It handles the following actions (extension mapping is /app/*): /app/control (top-level action that displays a page from which user can choose a sub-action) /app/control/viewResources (sub-action which displays another page and returns to above action when user hits "cancel") ... more sub-actions But all of these actions require a request parameter, "agentName", to be present. This is a problem because when the /app/control/viewResources action forwards to /app/control - this parameter is lost in the redirection. So is there any way to append a parameter to the ActionForward object? In a similar way to the tag <html:rewrite forward="nameOfForward" paramId="id" paramValue="value"/> Any help is much appreciated. Cheers.
