Note that you'll probably want some text in between the beginning and ending
tags, so you can actually see the hyperlink on the browser screen.

WebLogic 6.0 currently has a restriction that all servlet context attributes in
a webapp have to be Serializable (not just session attributes). I've been going
through the various objects that Struts itself creates, and ActionForwards
(among others) was recently made Serializable -- you should be able to do this
with a very recent nightly build.
NOTE: The Struts example application still won't work, though -- it uses a
context attribute that is not serializable, so it won't work correctly on this
platform.
