You don't need a form with an action.
I have an action called 'HomeAction' - it's job is to decide where to
direct a user based on their allowable actions.
It's configured like this in struts-config:
<action path="/home"
type="hnz.survey.HomeAction"
validate="false">
<forward name="surveyList" path="/editSurveyList.do"/>
<forward name="selectSurvey" path="/editSelectSurvey.do"/>
</action>
ie 'HomeAction' gets called using the url path '/home'. HomeAction decides
which one of the two destinations to forward the user to.
Note that the form passed to HomeAction will be null.

John

| Subject: Should every Action have an associated form?
|
>--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
Hey everyone!
I hope to not get flamed, but it's getting late here and I'm tired of
looking through the archives. Should every Action have an associated
ActionForm? Is it a bad idea to read a parameter directly from the
request in the Action? I have a page where I need to show details for a
particular item in our database. People will be directed to this page
via a url http://127.0.0.1/foo/bar.do?id=123. If I need an ActonForm,
what's the best way to set this up in the struts-config.xml? Thoughts?
Thanks in advance!
Matt
