I'm not sure I understand the question but..
I needed to have a dynamically created image inserted into a graph.jsp
I solved the problem using <html:img page="createImage.do" />
Then the action mapped to "createImage.do" can do anything you want without
influencing the loading of the main
graph.jsp.
I write my image to the graph.jsp using - in my CreateImageAction:
OutputStream os = response.getOutputstream;
response.setContentType("image/jpeg");
.. write to os stream...
os.close
return null;
Works a treat - the page loads and as it does so, an action is performed - but goes
nowhere other than to write an image
to the OutputStream.
Would a modification of the above help solve the problem?
