For what it's worth, you could alternatively do this:
MessageResources resources = getResources(request);
if(form.getButton().equals(resources.getMessage("your.ok.key"))){
}
if(form.getButton().equals(resources.getMessage("your.cancel.key"))){
}
However, there could later be unreachable code if
someone translates your properties files and makes two
keys equate to the same text. I broke down and made
different form properties for each submit button:
if(form.getOkButton()!=null){
}
if(form.getCancelButton()!=null){
}
I'll bet LookupDispatchAction is a better solution.
