Currently (i.e. Struts 1.2.x) this is done in the processForwardConfig() method of the RequestProcessor - if the ActionMapping has "redirect" set to true it calls the sendRedirect(url) method - which as I understand it is a convenience method for setting a "302" status and "location" header.
Currently you would have to create your own custom RequestProcessor to achieve this and override the processForwardConfig() method to do this. Not sure about "isPermanent" - looks like there are a number of "redirection" status codes according to the spec - 301/302/303/307 ftp://ftp.isi.edu/in-notes/rfc2616.txt Niall ----- Original Message ----- From: "Dakota Jack" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Saturday, January 07, 2006 3:06 PM Hi, Eric, I think you have to go back through the code and find out where the status codes are handled. I have to admit that I don't know. If someone else does, this would be great information to have. This is an interesting problem and one that I always put on the back burner. Maybe now is the time to make some decisions about what to do.
