I submit a very simple form to an action, the code in the action class finds
the appropriate forward, and then control is handed off to the framework.
no errors are generated, but i get a "File Download" popup window that asks,
"Do you want to save this file, or find a program online to open it? Name:
logon.do; Type: Unknown file type, 543 bytes; From: Localhost"
Here is the code:
//struts-config
<action-mappings>
<action
path="/logon"
type="com.sep.ebs.actions.LogonAction"
name="logonForm"
scope="request"
input="/pages/home.jsp"
unknown="false"
validate="false">
<forward
name="defaultData"
path="/default.do"
redirect="false" />
<forward
name="success"
path="/pages/Contracts.jsp"
redirect="false" />
<forward
name="failure"
path="/pages/home.jsp"
redirect="false" />
//home.jsp
<body>
<!--#include virtual="header.jsp" -->
<!--#include virtual="message.jsp" -->
<!--#include virtual="Menu.jsp" -->
<html:form action="logon.do">
Username: <html:text property="username"/><br/>
Password: <html:text property="password"/><br/>
<html:submit property="submit" value="Logon"
styleClass="searchButton"></html:submit>
</html:form>
//LogonAction
public ActionForward executeAppLogic(ActionMapping mapping, ActionForm
form,HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse response)throws
Exception {
//check logon credentials
//some code
DefaultDataForm bean = getDefaultData(form);
request.setAttribute(EBSUtil.MESSAGE_BEAN, bean);
ActionForward forward = mapping.findForward("success");
return forward;
}
I am running this in Eclipse, and in the debugger, the value of the forward
at the end of my LogonAction has the correct mapping
("/pages/Contracts.jsp"). More confusing is that if I type in the url
(root/pages/Contracts.jsp), the page loads correctly. I just cant get the
Action class to send me there.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
