Hi Hubert, thanx for answering! Read below.

The doGet method receives the request and response objects. Correct me if I'm wrong, but the request object is client-specific, and so are the ActionForm objects, as you clearly mentioned above. Therefore, no matter which client originated the request, through it you'd be able to access any attribute stored on that specific request or even on the Session associated to it. Being Struts already in charge of managing the life-cycle of the ActionForm-s, I believe there shouldn't be a problem in trying to access the ActionForm for a given Action (/client) from a separate Servlet, since the latter won't be able to reach anything the former does not want it to. This was actually the initial reasoning that led me to the tesis that it should be absolutely feasible to accomplish this integration. Do u agree? This said, my question remains: is there some Struts' class that encapsulates the scope issue (and others as well) and, given a form bean's name (and maybe the request / Session / something else...), returns it (if exists)??? I sneaked through the tag libs classes (the source code) and saw something more or less similar to what I'm looking for; the problem was that it did additional stuff I don't want to get executed, plus it was tied to JSP (it used pageContext and other stuff)... > (3) How can I do it from an ordinary Servlet? >request.getAttribute(formName); >or >session.getAttribute(formName); > depending on the scope of the form as declared in struts-config. Would that be the formName as declared in struts-config? --- Outgoing mail is certified Virus Free. Checked by AVG anti-virus system (http://www.grisoft.com).
