Cagan,
using the <html:link> tag will solve your action calling problems:
<html:link page="/link.do?urn=1334333" >Some link text here</html:link>
this will produce the following link:
<a href="/ppp/link.do?urn=1334333">Some link text here</a>
use the paramId, paramName, paramProperty attributes if the 'urn' value is
dynamic.
But, I get the feeling that you want the action to forward to one of many
tiles layout jsp's.
One might be in 'p3/layout' and another in 'p4/layout'?
If this is the case, then the only way I can guarantee that you will
achieve this is to pass the value
'p3/layout' as a parameter and then pre-append it to your action's
forward.
I'm not saying that this is the only way, but it is the only one that I
don't have to test to know that it will work :)

Geoff,
Thanks for your answer.
The problem is '/layout' or another directory gets appended there by
Tomcat at runtime..Here's the whole story:
The content is generated by a content editor, and for internal links we
specified that the client uses the following format:
<a href="link.do?urn=1334333">Some link text here</a>
When this content is loaded, and it's loaded by a Tiles layout jsp,
Tomcat automatically reads it as :
http://hostname:port/ppp/p3/layout/link.do?urn=1334333
where 'ppp' is the name of the context and 'p3/layout' the path to the
directory where the Tiles layout jsp resides.
And I'm trying to get my web app to forward all 'link.do' requests to
the same handler.
I don't want to hardcode the directory structure into the struts-config
when defining the <action> element...
