Yes, You can, provided that you are not submitting the form   meaning though you are 
passing value thru <html:link> it wont carry but value in sumbit action of your form.

example If you are submitting it thru <html:link 
action=action="/xyz/id=30"><html:image /></html:link> you wont get this "id" in your 
request.getParameter("id"), replace <html:image/> by <html:img/> so by you are not 
submitting the form.

Thanks Ramadoss.  You led me to look into my web.xml file.  It is mapped to
*.exec and not *.exe.  It's an oversight on my part.

Let me elaborate my question #3:
If my .JSP has a <html:form action="/app/UpdateOrder?id=30" ....>,  I know
when I click a 'submit' button to get to an Action class, I can retrieve the
id in my Action class by doing "String id = Request.getParameter("id");"
But if my .jsp uses a link to pass the id such as
 <a href="app/UpdateOrder.exec?id=30">...... In other words, I get to the
Action class through a 'link' rather than a 'submit', can I still use "
String id = Request.getParameter("id"); " to retrieve the id?  I tried it
and I can't find "id" from the Request object.

<If Im not wrong>if ".exe" is what you hv configured in web.xml then I see
there is no reason why it is not picking up </>

possible reason could be...

make sure that you are forwarding to "Content" which is mapped to
"/app/ListOfOrder.exe" in your OrderMaintainAction

>>1) Can someone also tell me if I have a "Request attribute" defined in

the same scenarion where I'm not able to get the value of request attribute
which I set in my previous Action class then I set as session attribute and
Im able to get that value in the other Action class where Im redirecting to.

>>2) A general question: if formA is linked to formB through a 'link'.   If
I

I dont really understand your point but I assumed that you are passing a
parameter from one form to another in such case if you are calling other
page/calling action class by passing request parameter you could get those
parameters on the other page/action class.

Hi:
   I have a similar problem that I can't invoke OrderSearchAction.exe from
OrderMaintainAction.  I set a debug breakpoint at the beginning of
OrderSearchAction and never get there.

    <action    path="/app/DeleteOrder"
               type="com.cat.action.OrderMaintainAction"
               name="OrderFormBean"
              scope="request"
           validate="false">
        <forward name="Content" path="/app/ListOfOrder.exe" redirect="true"
/>
        <forward name="ContentError" path="/app/DeleteError.jsp"/>
    </action>

    <action    path="/app/ListOfOrder"
               type="com.cat.action.OrderSearchAction"
               name="OrderSearchFormBean"
              scope="request"
           validate="false">
        <forward name="Content" path="/app/ListOfOrder.jsp"/>
        <forward name="ContentError" path="/app/OrderError.jsp"/>

    </action>

I have two other questions:
1) Can someone also tell me if I have a "Request attribute" defined in
OrderMaintainAction, if the above redirection works, will I be able to see
the same "Request attribute" in OrderSearchAction?
2) A general question: if formA is linked to formB through a 'link'.   If I
click on the 'link' in formA, can I get to the passed parameter of FormA by
doing Request.geParameter("id") or I can only retrieve 'id' throught a
'submit' rather than through a 'link'?

Thanks for any help!
