Have you looked at the HttpServletRequest api? There a bunch of methods that parse out and return different parts of the request URL (like getServletPath()...). I'm not sure (I've never tried, and unfortunately I'm not in a position to give it a test right now) but I think what you are looking for is probably there (?). Otherwise, I would suggest looking through the struts source (probably starting in the ActionServlet) to see if you can determine how the framework deals with it.
Good Luck!
