Sure Ted. Thanx. My perspective always comes from assuming that the reader
doesnt know much. People get confused and sidetracked with jargon, and
struts can be used by less experienced people if explained correctly. I
mean, dont we want the user base to grow so it can be developed better and
Absolutely everything is in the source download, under /doc

All of the docs in the Struts Documentation application (which is also the
contents of the Struts web site) are generated this way. In addition, the

Hello all.
It seems that there is a back log of documentation to do and I would like to
offer to help with it as I am very good at explaining things. It also helps
me understand the framework in a deeper way. However, because I am still
relatively green with Struts (3 months) I will need to
Personally, I don't think that your questions would clutter up the
list. If you don't understand it, then it's (very) likely that many
others do not either. Moreover, the developer's list is intended for
discussions about developing and packaging struts, and it * is * the
appropriate place to
Really what ever is appropriate is fine. As long as you know in advance
that I will be posting these questions through the process. I think the
best place to start is where you feel documentation is needed most right
now. I also think that the easier it is for first timers to understand
Struts
Also, I think most of the explanations in available tutorials on the net are
not clear.

Also, truthfully, you could provide this System.out version with the Struts

simultaneously

Ok. You tell me what you would like. I would like to send html for

I often start with plain text since its easiest to retrofit with the XML
tags later.
Everything we use to build the Struts documentation is in the source
download (\doc).

I've just started playing around with a free XML tool called XML Cooktop.
It's pretty cool. You can load up the XML file in one tab of a window, the
XSL in another, and switch to a third tab to see the result of applying the
XSL to the XML. It works just fine with the Struts docs and stylesheets,
