Joel, In a nutshell: the 'redirect="true"' causes a message to go back to the client's browser telling it to ask for another page. This causes the request to end and anything in the request scope to be lost. Setting 'redirect="false"' in your forward lets Struts pass control (internal to the server) over to the JSP so it preserves anything in the 'request' scope. The client's browser knows nothing about this --- it just waits for something/output from the server. As far as the browser knows, the 'action' is the one giving it the answer. This is how some programmers secure their JSP's under /WEB-INF and use actions to 'reach' the pages, preventing any pages requiring beans or pages with scriptlets from being accessed without the proper setup or security involved.
