If you are using a result type of "redirectAction" you don't
explicitly code the url just give it the action name and let the
result construct the correct url.
To pass parameters with a redirectAction you do it like this:
<result name="success" type="redirectAction">
< param name="actionName">CompleteConfirmation</ param >
< param name="orderNumbers">${orderNumbers}</ param >
</result>
(hopefully the above param tags come thru correctly, some mailing list
readers like nabble muck-up param tags.)
You will need to ensure the ${orderNumbers} can be converted to a
meaningful string so that it can be encoded as a url parameter. And
the target action will need to be able to convert the string back into
a collection.
You will also need to be aware that there are length limits to url's
so if orderNumbers is too big you can have problems.
It may be a a better idea to just save the orderNumbers in the session
(or some other cache) instead of passing it as a parameter.
