I think your way should work too.You should be able to define any kind of mapping as per rules!!Your mapping should match the call.
But when U define mapping as /pm/* then you also have to call servlet like. <html:form name="myForm" method="post" action="/pm/myAction" > type="aaa.ers.struts.forms.myForm"> <action name="myForm" path="/pm/myAction" parameter="methodtocall" scope="request" type="aaa.ers.struts.actions.myAction" validate="false"> and this should work too.I am not sure if you tried that?? but since the other one is working :) good "Jim Kennedy" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> 10/24/2003 03:39 PM Please respond to "Struts Users Mailing List" To: "Struts Users Mailing List" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> cc: Subject: Re: Having trouble with html:form tag - Using 1.1 - THAT WORKED But why. I don't understand. I should be able to define: /pm/* /hello/* /anything/* to the Struts action servlet. It's doing weird things here. It's not able to figure out that I am using /pm/... I guess because it's getting confused by all the other subcontexts. It should be using the sample context/subcontext as the form itself. Do you think this is a bug? Or should I avoid /this/* and /that/* ? How would I do security on some but not all then?
