That seems kinda redundant to me ;-) Just use the ForwardAction that comes with Struts:

  <action path="..." type="org.apache.struts.actions.ForwardAction"
          parameter="page.newUserForm"/>

I think you can also do something like this,

  <action path="..." forward="page.newUserForm"/>

Not sure about that, though.

For some reason a simple forwarding action needs to go through an action class.

Something like

public class BlankAction extends Action {
public ActionForward execute(..) throws Exception {
    return mapping.findForward("success");
}
}

<action path="/newUserForm" type="foo.struts.BlankAction">
   <forward name="success" value="page.newUserForm" />
</action>


Should work just fine.

I am trying to put together an example j2ee web site using struts/tiles as
the front end, using struts 1.2.8.  I have been trying to guess and
experiment to find out how to merge the two, since most examples just use
jsp pages for the view layer, and I am trying to use tiles throughout.
What more or less works is to define each tiles page, and use them as the
target of forward actions.  Where the examples give a jsp input, I use a
forward action that goes to the tile.  However, I then wind up with a
forward to the confirmation page, where I would like a redirect (to avoid
reposting problems).  I tried to add redirect="true" as below, but it still
forwards (with the action defined below, the final confirmation page
displays /host/context/newUser.do in the browser window).  I attempted
changing path from page.newUserConfirmation to /newUserConfirmation and
defining an action with path /newUserConfirmation to forward to
page.newUserConfirmation, but I get the context root added to  the url.

Any ideas on how to get redirected to the confirmation page?

    <action
      attribute="newUserForm"
      input="/newUserForm.do"
      name="newUserForm"
      path="/newUser"
      scope="request"
      type="ca.bcit.infosys.web.action.NewUserAction">
      <forward name="showNewUserConfirmation" redirect="true" path=
"page.newUserConfirmation" />
    </action>
    <action path="/newUserForm"  scope="request" validate="false" forward=
"page.newUserForm" />
