If you are using submit, or anchor tag you can call "reloadContents()" on
the widget passed as a parameter, if you are using the div tag, you can call
"refresh()" on it. These functions are not really part of the api and might
change in the future (although it would be nice if they were right?).

request happens.

If I knew how Struts did the request I would just do
the same thing at the bottom of my function.
