I see nothing wrong with what you are doing. You don't even need the name
="" in the xml. You might want to look at <html:link> in case you need to
do anything more with maintaining session, etc.

Information and Reports
I am new to struts and I don't know if this is of any use or if it is even
right, but when I wanted to call an Action when the user clicked a link I
used something like (no forms involved):
<p>Build Database: <a href="1-5-1_BuildDatabaseAction.do">Button</a></p>
and in my struts-config.xml had something like:
<action
path="/1-5-1_BuildDatabaseAction"
type="com.myapp.view.DBAdminClient"
name=""
input="/1-5_SAMainPage.jsp">
<forward name="db_create_success" path="/success.html"/>
<forward name="db_create_failed" path="/fail.html"/>
</action>
I left name="" because I wasn't doing anything with a form, just responding
to a user clicking on a link. I welcome comments letting me know if this
is
the right way to be doing this or (rather more likely) that I am clueless
and that there is some other struts mechanism I should be using to handle
getting access to the action mappings when no forms are involved.
Thanks,
- Jim

I don't use form because I don't need to submit any data. The action will
perform some logic against query string in request and data in session, and
forward wither to a success page or a failure page.
I could put this logic directly in JSP rather than in an action, but I
don't want so many Java code in JSP.

Why would you want to call an Action class directly from a JSP (outside a
form:action block)?

Could someone help me on this code:
In *.jsp:
<%
if (condition satisfied) {
// how to fill this line to call an action, say invoke.do?
}
%>
Thanks.
