Hi, not to forget: in the action you have to return null (return(null);) when you will service the request completely within the action.

Plus I want the servlet to get DataSource from Action class servlet field like: javax.sql.DataSource dataSource = servlet.findDataSource(null); My question is is it possible to send output from Action directly to a user, without redirecting to any jsp's? Other way to do that would be to use ordinary servlet, but how can I get the DataSource which is in struts configuration then? -- Best regards, Maciej -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> For additional commands, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
