We will be rendering the state of the tree in HTML. My question is how to build the HTML links to correctly communicate which link is clicked in Struts 1.1 RC1. I picture a single Action class, something like MenuAction that would then get a set of parameters indicating the node clicked and then delegate to the business object to update the TreeModel accordingly. Much of the documentation is about using ActionForms to pass information to the Struts Action. Without A Formbean how does one correctly use the action attribute of the <html:link> tag in struts 1.1? <html:link action="/menu?menuID=20&content_id=30">Arts</html:link> <html:link action="/menu?menuID=10&content_id=30">English</html:link> Tree could be something like: Arts Music Learning Experiences Theature Best Practices ELA Learning Experiences Best Practices --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
