Still trying to figure this one out. Below is my original action where I
would compare the values of 'view' and return a view mapping pending the
value of view ...

public class Products extends ActionSupport implements ParameterAware {
   private Map params;
   ...
   public void setParameters(Map map) { this.params = map; }

   public String doExecute() throws Exception {

      if (view.equals("myview.a")) {
         return "selectA.success";
      }
      else if (view.equals("myview.b")) {
         return "selectB.success";
      }

      return "select.error";
}

Then I needed to capture the parameter from within the action (coming from
the velocity *.vm template) so I changed the class I extended from and now
have ...

public class Products extends WebWorkVelocityServlet implements
ParameterAware {
   private Map params;
   ...
   public void setParameters(Map map) { this.params = map; }

   public Template handleRequest(Context context) {
      HttpServletRequest request = (HttpServletRequest)
context.get(REQUEST);
      HttpServletResponse response = (HttpServletResponse)
context.get(RESPONSE);
   }
}

As I understand it, I now have the handleRequest() method above so that I
can get a query string parameter from the servlet now and write something
like this in the template page ...
--- *.vm file
   #if ( $reqParser.getParameter("myParam").equals("this_string") )
      ## do something
   #end

The problem is that whereas I had the execute() method from the first ex.
(extended from ActionSupport) to compare views and return a different view
pending on the value of view, I don't know how to do this (return views
pending a query string parameter in the servlet request) w/ the
WebWorkVelocityServlet.

So what I have is a query string coming from the template to the action, and
then I'll return a view mapping w/ query string parameters back to the
browser.

Any help much appreciated.
