As previously stated if you are writing directly to the response you need to return null from the action. I am still not sure why you're using a tile definition here. > It seems I need to return my result in JSON format correct? By returning > a JSON String from the action, how to I configure my response? As Jeremy said this is, however, probably a bad idea, considering that the same outcome can be achieved in several different ways. Using a JSON result will serialize your action to JSON automagically. You'd use a "json" result (via the JSON plugin), not a tile. Or you could build the JSON manually and configure a FreeMarker result. > If I use the tiles response type, I get a dojo parsing error because the > whole page is returned from the reply.

What example are you referring to? http://struts.apache.org/2.0.11/docs/ajax-tags.html#AjaxTags-autocompleterTag? When making an Ajax request for a component like <s:autocompleter.../> it's unlikely you'd want to return anything other than JSON. (Other components or component libraries may want other formats like XML or whatever.) Unless your tile definition is creating JSON it's not going to work, and it's unlikely that would be the best way to generate the JSON anyway. > Also, I think I found a bug? -- the namespace attribute seems to be > ignored when I pass href=%{search} to the autocompleter.

If it doesn't this can lead to dispatching issues.
