The Struts Action returns an ActoinForward object. The path property of determines which resource gets control. The resource can be anything, not just a JSP or Struts Action. So if you had a servlet that rendered XML, you could forward to that instead.
The Expresso framework has a standard option for using XML/XLS with Struts. The Stxx extension also looks quite good. http://jakarta.apache.org/struts/resources/views.html Depending on what you need to do, another technique is to use the digester to convert XML to a JavaBean (if the XML is someplace where the Action can get it), and then pass that down to the JSP. There are also tags for doing XML/XLS conversions within the JSP. http://jakarta.apache.org/taglibs/doc/xsl-doc/intro.html -Ted.
