Re: Override form action URL
Assuming you could do this, how then does struts know when you submit to "/test/a/" what action to run and for what reason "would like to avoid exposing the action URL"?

Re: Override form action URL
If so you can define a dummy action to which your form points. In the dummy just forward to your actual action. In the rendered jsp/html page you will see the dummy action. Thanks, unfortunately the example I gave was somewhat simplified. I'd rather avoid having to configure dozens of dummy actions. Furthermore, Struts will insist that actions mapped to nested paths be put in their own subapplications. And finally, the following mapping would not be possible: /test/a/ -> /test/search?dataset=a /test/a/1 -> /test/retrieve?id=1 In the end, as far as I can see, all I need is a way to override the URL that is generated by the html:form tag. I just opened a feature request, see http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=29363. - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Re: Override form action URL
I donot know whether I have understood this properly but are you trying to mask your actual action mapping? If so you can define a dummy action to which your form points. In the dummy just forward to your actual action. In the rendered jsp/html page you will see the dummy action.
