How about servlet filters instead? We've started using them for things we want to handle for all URLs, outside of the normal application logic, including session timeout.

I am using struts 1.1 and tomcat 5 for an application. I am also using DynaValidatorForm for validation of form data. Here is my problem: I want to test for (tomcat) session timeout and output a message on the users brower stating that their session timed out. I want to catch and process this situation wherever it may occur. For example, they log in and click on a menu item; right now the first thing I do in the action for that menu item is to see if the session is null, if it is I take appropriate action; fine.
The problem I see is when the user gets a for up where the validation is handled by a DynaValidatorForm. It just merrily processes the form and shows validation errors. This is especially problematic on a multiform wizard that I created. If the user got to page 2, went out to lunch, came back and wants to pick up where they left off, they can't, because the page one stuff is not there anymore.
I was thinking of writing a subclass of ForwardAction that checks for the session before forwarding to the normal place. If the session is not valid, it goes to some other specified place. Any thoughts or suggestions?
