This is a question about ActionForward and JavaScript.
OVERVIEW
>From a jsp, I create a modal dialog:
var x = window.showModalDialog( 'opsig.jsp', ' ', 'dialogHeight:220px;
dialogWidth:800px; help:0; center:1; scroll:1; status:0' )
The modal dialog is itself a jsp, with a form which maps to an Action class:
<html:form action="/opsig">
<!-- stuff here -->
</html:form>
The perform( ) method forwards to another page.
==============================================
QUESTION: why does the dialog jsp create two different results?
1. When the dialog jsp is hosted in the modal window described above, the resulting
forward logic creates the forward page in a new browser window.
2. When the dialog jsp is hosted in a standard IE 5.5 browser window, the resulting
forward logic creates the forward page in the same browser window.
