George, the action can choose which forward to return. You were asking
if it, for example, always goes to "success"? No, it doesn't have to; it
can choose the view via the forward.

Right, in that context including an action as a block is very much like
including a tile with an associated tile controller. The action then
just puts data into scope for the JSP to display.
What I didn't understand was, "It can also decide the flow of display by
selecting the appropriate forward."

This topic NOT about chaining (Paul, I am very sorry to bring
the chaining up).
What Paul talks about is including an action URL into a JSP
page. Consider a Model 1 application, JSP page can
dynamically include other resources with <jsp:include> or
with <c:import>. Now consider that a JSP page includes a
Struts action instead of JSP file. Included Struts action
forwards to a JSP file, the latter renders a fragment of a
composite page. There is no disagreement.

If you're chaining actions for different blocks of the

you handle disagreements between the appropriate forward of
one block
vs. another? This seems problematic, to me.

By performing an "action", it is getting data from a
service. It can
also decide the flow of display by selecting the appropriate
forward.

Coming in very late, here, but I just wanted clarification.
It sounds
to me as if you're using actions like a tile
controller. In other
words, it's not performing any "action" or deciding the flow of
display, but merely gathering data and putting it into
scope for
display. Is that a correct description?
