Hello,
You don't need to specify a struts global forward.
If you use tiles servlet, you can use a tiles definition name in place of
a page url in the struts action <forward> tag :
<action path="/test/testAction"
type="org.apache.struts.example.tiles.test.TestActionTileAction">
<forward name="success" path="test.struts.action"/>
<forward name="failure" path="test.struts.action.fail"/>
</action>
There is a lot of examples inside the struts-tiles.war or tiles-doc.war.
Check the code.
