Excellent hint, thanks.
I forgot I may jump between various methods this way in the struts config.
This will perfectly work in the case I described.
Any idea how to solve the problem with various messages or errors to
be displayed, when I have no control on the messages/errors being
added?

Hi
If you are always going to display the same message then you could get the
action you redirect
to to display the message. I have done this to get "Processing Successful"
messages output after
updates
e.g.
in your action:-
return "missingid";
redirect this result to a method in your other action
<result name="missingid" type="redirect-action">input!noId</result>
and in the method output your message before doing your normal
processing
public String noId() {
addActionError(getText("some.id.not.set"));
return execute();
}
