I tried forming the link tag like this <html:link action="/search.do">Search</html>
Now, unlike before, the JSP will render without throwing an exception and causing a 500 error to appear in the browser. However, when I click on the link, I still get "HTTP method GET is not supported by this URL" (I'm still wondering why the previous ways of forming the link tag were causing errors, since they correspond to what's given in the docs.)
