Stuts 1.2.9 and 1.3.1+ will include EventActionDispatcher, which is
the main asset of Struts Dialogs 2.0. See here for more discussion:

http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=38343
http://wiki.apache.org/struts/EventActionDispatcher
http://wiki.apache.org/struts/DataEntryForm

Therefore you may want to consider upgrading core Struts library and
to use Struts Dialogs 2.0 merely as a collection of sample code. You
will still need Struts Dialogs if you decide to use wizard engine.

I appreciate that you found my work useful.
