I can do better, I released a very small demo of how setup and switch
between modules (3 different ways, but there are more).

You can download the source here:
http://sf.net/projects/struts

Look under the package: 'simple' for 'Module Switching Examples'


* One thing to note - as I replied to your private email, you cannot use
path mapping with Modules, it requires extension mapping (*.do,
*.action, *.whatever)


Good Luck!
