Something like this might work: <bean:define id="actionMappingForThisScreen" name="org.apache.struts.action.mapping.instance" type="org.apache.struts.action.ActionMapping"/> <bean:define id="formName" name="actionMappingForThisScreen" property="name" type="java.lang.String" /> <bean:define id="formBean" name="<%= formName %>" type="org.apache.struts.action.ActionForm"/>
I haven't tested it, but i *think* it'll work since i *think* the current action mapping is stored in the request under the key "org.apache.struts.action.mapping.instance". The above code should help you get the form bean's name and a reference to the bean itself. chris > -----Original Message----- > From: Charles McClain [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] > Sent: Friday, September 20, 2002 11:13 AM > To: Struts User Mailing List > Subject: Re-using JSP pages -- Follow-up > > > All: > > This is a follow-up to my earlier post on the same topic.
