Subject: Action without ActionForm


Is there any way in struts-config.xml to specify an Action that doesn't
require an ActionForm?
I have:


index.jsp -> link to controller Action -> decides which jsp to display
-> start.jsp or stop.jsp

start.jsp and stop.jsp just have a form with a button that starts/stops
a service. So I don't need an ActionForm


I tried:
<form-bean name="generic"
type="org.apache.struts.action.DynaActionForm"/>

<action path="/Start" type="org.test.Actions.Start" name="generic">
   <forward name="started" path="/WEB-INF/jsp/controls/started.jsp" />
</action>

but after the "generic" form bean is used by a previous Action I get:
Cannot retrieve definition for form bean generic on action /Start

do I need a DynaActionForm for every Action that doesn't need an
ActionForm?
