the powers that be within my organization have passed a decree that all form
buttons have to use images because, supposedly, html text buttons are too
"ugly". be that as it may.
i am extending the LookupDispatchAction for all my Action classes that have
inserts/updates/searches etc in them. the following is an example of my
action setup in struts-config.xml.
<!-- Carrier related Action Mappings -->
<action
path="/secure/CarrierAdmin"
name="CarrierAdminForm"
type="com.brightpoint.online.admin.control.carrier.CarrierAdminAction"
scope="request"
input="/jsp/admin/carrier/carrierAdmin.jsp"
validate="false"
parameter="action">
<forward name="show_carrier_admin"
path="/jsp/admin/carrier/carrierAdmin.jsp?action=view"/>
</action>
in my jsp, i was able to successfully get it to work in the following way.
