If the intent is to forward to a "home" or "logout" page after a period of inactivity, using a javascript method or META:REFRESH tag is the only way to do so out of the context of a request, since--as you said--in a separate thread or servlet, any timer wouldn't have access to the action class.
You could, I suppose, have all your action classes check some session- or globally-scoped timer and redirect based on that criteria, but it doesn't sound like that's what you're after... -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, March 12, 2004 11:18 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: how to automatically forward user's page to a html link at speified time Hi, all I want the struts application have an internal timer. When the specified time(like 9:00pm) arrive, the user's current page should be forwarded to another html link. I know the java.util.timer and java.util.TimerTask can do such thing. Maybe I can put the timer class stuff in HttpSessionListener or ServletContextListener, but I just have no idea how to forward a page inside the TimerTask class not inside action as usual? So did anyone come across the similar problem? Could you shed me light on it? Thanks in Advance.
