You can always get from where the request is coming from by getting the Referer from the Request. String referer = request.getHeader("REFERER");
I'm not sure that this is want you want. You must beware that the referrer can be blank when typing in the URL in the browser, plus the consequences of the ActionForm.validate() and errors.

Look at this code: public class DisplayAboutAction extends Action { public ActionForward execute(ActionMapping actionMapping, ActionForm actionForm, HttpServletRequest httpServletRequest, HttpServletResponse httpServletResponse) { // do stuff..... ActionForward af = new ActionForward(); af.setPath(previousPagePath); return af; } } I need to get a value for 'previousPagePath'. I'm trying something like : <bean:page id="reqq" property="request" /> <html:link action="next.do" paramId="old_page" paramName="reqq" paramProperty="servletPath"> but I'm using Tiles, so what I have as 'old_page' parameter is not the action 'previous.do' but '/jsplayout.jsp' instead thanks, TREMALNAIK --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
