Actually, you can use .do without actions. This snippet is from a demo app that we have:
<action name="searchCustomer" path="/searchCustomer" forward="/searchCustomer.jsp" /> where the url would be searchCustomer.do and there are no actions and no formbeans for the resulting page (searchCustomer.jsp). I use this quite a bit actually myself where I believe in abstracting out the url links in the pages from the actual locations/page names; meaning I can change the searchCustomer.jsp page to some other page and not have to go through all my pages and update links. In this scenario the ActionServlet is a traffic controller for the pages. You could even do this in a completely non-action website, and would make sense in a really large site that gets updated a frequently. - Robert -----Original Message----- From: K J [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Friday, April 19, 2002 1:04 PM To: Struts Users Mailing List Subject: *.do ---- Proof of Concepts Say I have a web application which contains 1 JSP and I wanted to use Struts. I don't have any action classes, but I want to use the controler servelt and the taglib. Will the *.do work only when you have action classes? What would this entry look like if I only want the Controler servelt to forward to a JSP(without any action classes)? can you tell me what needs to go where(i.e. web.xml vs. struts-config.xml). what should go in the global forward path, and the servelet-mapping section? Thanks. ===== __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Yahoo!
