Oopse,
I forge to add that my action is no longer being called. It was working fine
two days ago. I don't know what broke it. The only thing I notice was what I
have written below. Also, I have pasted the relevant parts of my
struts-config.xml file. The funny thing is that all of my other actions works
fine. I have just notice that the logical url of the other actions for my
forms are also being re-written, attaching the application root, but seems to
work OK.
Help Please.

<form-bean name="StudentForm" type="com.jacobs.sesm.struts.form.StudentForm"

<action path="/student/update" type="com.jacobs.sesm.struts.action.UpdateStudentAction" name="StudentForm" scope="session" input="/struts/jspform/StudentForm.jsp" parameter="id" >
The parameter attribute is used my Actions that extend DispatchAction you don't use it unless you are using dispatch action. Many folks call the pararmeter method or action as its the mechanism for selecting the relevant method..
<action path="/myaction.do type="com.sparrow.struts.MyAction" parameter="method">
//in the action class
public final class MyAction extends
org.apache.struts.actions.DispatchAction {
public final ActionForward mymethod(
ActionMapping mapping,
ActionForm form,
HttpServletRequest request,
HttpServletResponse response)
throws Exception {//jsp
<html:link page="/myaction.do?method=mymethod"...
There are more elegant ways of passing in the parameter named method including of course having a form element called thus. I tend to use a standard form element, so I don't have to declare a form property called method, as its more a method selection mechanism.
<forward name="success" path="/content/page/student.jsp?Student"
redirect="true" />
</action>

I am getting this strange behavior in my forms. Within my jsp form I have
my action written as the following:
action="/student/update.do"
I assume that you have to pass an ID through to be able to carryout operations on a student object.
However, when the form is displayed via the browser, and a doing a view
source, I see the following:
action="/sesm/student/update.do"
If your webapp is called sesm then this is fine..
/webapps/sesm
Is what you directory structure should look like. One of the advantages of using struts or other tags that support this sort of thing, is you don't get into the business of writing the whole path e.g. /sesm/myaction.do
It seems that my web application root directory gets tacked onto the logical url.
The documentation on html:link and html:rewrite should clear this all up, the user guide also as i recall covers all this.,
Can someone explain to me why this is happening.
Thanks,
Curtney
