I used frames briefly, to show the UI team it was possible. I mainly showed
them how to make submits show up on a different frame, which is not quite
what you're talking about:
<html:form action="editThingy" target="overThere">
.
.
.
</html:form>
It worked, and I stopped playing with it and let the UI team do their thing.
As you probably know, just taking the controls away does not truly prevent
users from accessing those controls. I use ALT + (LEFT||RIGHT) more than
the nav bar.
Instead of fighting with JavaScript and the user, I have a SecurityAction
base class that among other things, issues a serial number that must match
with one stored in the session. It can be incremented for each operation,
but if you're really anal, it's a good idea to randomly issue them.

Subject: Opening another window from Struts
Hello
I'm trying to open a new window (without a location bar) from within my
Struts application. I don't want the users to be able to page forward
and back, etc. while they are on that new page editing a record in my
database.
I know how to open new windows via Javascript, but I'm unsure of how to
do this in what with Struts passing beans and parameters through the
Action servlet. Has anyone worked this out before?
TIA for any ideas.
