You can forward to a JSP from your action rather than coding tags into your action, then generate XML in your JSP rather than HTML. Your JSP (aside from taglib directives etc) may look like this:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <ajax-response> <response> <c:forEach var="user" items="${requestScope.users}"> <item> <name><c:out value="${user.userName}"/></name> <value><c:out value="${user.id}"/></value> </item> </c:forEach> </response> </ajax-response> -Adam -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, June 14, 2006 8:01 AM To: user@struts.apache.org Subject: RE: ajax:autocomplete tag Hi That was what I ment - You don't return any values from your action. You need to write the values to the response (supplied by the action), and then return null. The documentation at http://ajaxtags.sourceforge.net shows you how, or search for Struts and returning a file for instance.
