Actually, it doesn't have to be a JSP, you can forward to an action if you wish. > What i need is <forward name='success' action='load object from > data'> > instead of <forward name='success' path=/xyz.jsp> > Regards Andy Just do: <forward name="success" path="load object from data.do" /> Another option to consider is to instantiate your "load object from data" action inside your "save" action, and call execute() on it... you may also need to instantiate and populate the ActionForm it expects as well. I'd personally go that route, just to avoid the overhead of the second trip through the RP chain. Frank -- Frank W.
