RE: ActionForward with runtime parameter?

[Twan Kogels]

Hello,
Thanks for the replies! Yes, the parameter should be passed as a real 
parameter. I tryed the setattribute/getattribute method but that resulted 
in strange side effects. To remove the side effects more code lines we're 
needed. I guess i'll stick to my new ActionForward method.

Cheers,
Twan

for some dissapointment ;-)
Doing it as an attribute would be ok though so long as its a non-redirecting
forward and the place you forward to knows to expect it as an attribute.
This does however mean you will also be passing along the baggage of all the
submitted request parameters for this page...
In this case I think that its definately parameters that Twan is after, so
the new ActionForward technique is the way to go.

Just a couple of small notes here though, (added for the Struts beginner):
you will be setting and getting a "attribute" not a "parameter". Also you
will need to set/get it as an Integer not an int..
