Well, I have spent the last 15 years designing and developing complex transaction switching architectures for the healthcare industry, unfortunately very little of this work was with the presentation layer. I am somewhat familiar with html and jsp, however I have never worked with taglibs. I understand what they are and how they work, however I need to know the syntax and usage of these tags. Once I have that information, it should be easier to determine if Struts is the tool to use for my application.
What I am trying to do is quite basic. I would like to serve up a jsp that contains a form. The form populates a javabean that is passed into a servlet, the action controller does some work based on the contents of the javabean, and the result is displayed in a jsp. Pretty straightforward. However, it is very difficult to populate the bean without documentation for the struts-form taglib. If this is a bad approach, maybe you can point me in the correct direction.
