Thanks for the prompt reply. Its a late 90's   huge application in which now
i cannot start using Strus 2  as iam the only developer working on this. We
are using html in java code because the JSP changes at run time according to
the user inputs . Yeah , i agree that coz of diff environment we face lot of
problems but i cannot do anything as its not my decision.
We  run Apache as a front end for Tomcat. Apache serves up the html pages
and uses mod_jk mounts to forward the java application requests to Tomcat.
I'll try to find out what else i can do as i am unable to see anything in
apache logs as well.
