Here's my situation: I have a screen that contains a table of objects (say the screen is displayed by "table.do"). There is a link on the screen that causes a new object to be created by a Struts action (call it "create.do?key=NN"). The action forwards back to "table.do". If the creation was successful, the table should now show the list of objects with the newly-created one added. If the creation failed, the table should display along with an error message.
Here's my problem: when the "Create" link is clinked, the Action that does the work needs to do a redirect forward to "table.do". Otherwise you end up with "create.do?key=NN" in the browser location bar, and if the user then does a refresh on the table screen, instead of refreshing table.do the browser attempts to refresh create.do, which is wrong. The redirect solves this problem, except for error cases. If creation fails, I want to display an error message on the table screen. But all ActionErrors associated with the request are lost when I redirect.
