Thanks Terry. I could have sworn it didn't work when I started using Struts (v1.0, I think). Sadly, a quick bugzilla search didn't show up anything noticeable. Maybe I just mistyped it ages ago and got that idea stuck in my head. :(
I actually wanted to lookup the previous 1.0 and 1.1 release notes to figure out where I got this wrong idea but I deleted those versions from my HD. And now I can't seem to find out how to download previous releases from the Struts main site! It must be too late at night if I can't find the older versions! :( -David -----Original Message----- From: Terry Roe [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, September 22, 2004 6:23 PM To: Struts Users Mailing List Subject: Re: Path .frame.content Does Not Start With a "/" Character David, Someone had better tell my application then, because it is using lots of tiles for the input parameter. ;) I do recall getting the error described by Caroline some time ago, but darned if I can remember how I resolved it. (Too much water under the bridge. Or, too much beer on the brain?) It may be that I had to go to 1.2.x to get it to work. Just did a search of the Release Notes and it wasn't mentioned there, though. I do know it works because I am using validation and tiles for the input parameter. TR David G. Friedman wrote: > I recall reading that the action's "input" parameter cannot be a tile.
