If an action is used in a form tag, it is expected that it has a form attribute defined for it. Otherwise, Struts does not know where to put the data posted from the form. In your case, you don't have much of a form or need to store posted data. You could redefine as a link rather than a form.

Hi; When I set an action mapping as this (no form): <action path="/Logout" type="net.windward.store.LogoutAction"> <forward name="next" redirect="true" path="/var/login.jsp"/> </action> It threw an exception. When I added a from like this: <action path="/Logout" type="net.windward.store.LogoutAction" name="loginForm"> <forward name="next" redirect="true" path="/var/login.jsp"/> </action> It worked. Any ideas? In my .jsp I have: <html-el:form action="/Logout" styleClass="whiteBkgnd"> <html-el:submit property="submit" value="Logout"/> </html-el:form> thanks - dave --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
