Thank you Don.
I have done that and the session expiry problem is solved. The
bookmark problem still exists though...
There is a way to overcome this as well:
ActionForward forward = new ActionForward();
forward.setPath(mapping.findForward("reload").getPath() + "&id=23");
which redirects to http://my.foo.site/loadFoo.do&id=23 , but this is
a hack I wouldn't like to use (plus I would have to change the code
for ~60 classes many of which are DispatchActions: a lot of work
:))...

Can you take the request parameter and populate a hidden form field
with it? Mixing request params with form fields
has caused me grief more than once.
