Read Chapter 4, "Programming Jakarta Struts" by Chuck Cavaness (O'Reilly 2003). It answers most, if not all, your questions.

I have been reading struts in action, and Im trying to develop my first web app. My application is currently quite simple. I have a welcome which I would like to incorporate a counter on this page. To keep tabs of the # of people who have hit my site. I have a servlet which needs to be called when the page is first visited. My question is where do I call this servlet? I know i need to use the <logic present tags to verify if the bean is present; and I need to call an Action class which in turn will call a bean which will connect to a database which will keep count of the hits. Can the actionServlet directly call an Action since I have no need to call an ActionForm? And I was under the impresion that an Action would need to call an ActionForward when it completes its tasks. Would i still need to do this if the client remains on the same page?
