Not sure if this is considered a bug, it may be. Certainly the code
needs a catch-all to fix it.
I was having trouble getting a <html:form> tag to work, the action in
the generated html, was always ="". Having resorted to using
<struts:form> which worked (them were days, struts, pre version
numbers...), I finally put some debug code in html.FormTag.
The problem was, that servlet mapping, that the form tag looks up in
the application context was not the one that should have been used. I
have many mappings to the ActionServlet, one is *.do, while the rest
grab certain specific URL's (legacy JSP's, which get forwardeed to
actual JSP's having been through the controller for session checks and
logging). The form tag was finding a specific mapping, which fails ALL
the tests in getActionMappingURL() (I also have no context path) -
resulting in action="".
Quick solution: add a catch all (and maybe a warning?) to just use the
url provided.
(this diff is from the 1.0.1 source, though the latest in cvs has the
same problem)

value.append(servletMapping.substring
(0, servletMapping.length() - 2));
value.append(actionMapping);
+ } else {
+ value.append(action);
}
if (queryString != null)
value.append(queryString);
Real solution: erm don't know. I managed to fix this by placing the
*.do mapping last in web.xml, though this does seem very hacky and not
particularly stable.
