1) I would go for Strut2 right away, Struts1 (aka Struts-classic) is a
completely different framework. Struts2 is more modern, more productive
and more enjoyable to use. A good starter book to learn Struts2 is
"Struts2 In Action" from Manning.
2) Netbeans has a WYSIWYG JSP editor isn't it ? It's all what you need,
because Strut2 configuration file is so much simpler and smaller [than
the ones for Strut1] that we really don't need a graphical
representation anymore. Also I remember seeing that there exists a
Netbean pluging specifically for Struts2 development. But you can also
comfortably develop Struts2 applications with EclipseWTP.
3) Struts2 comes with all what you need for building form for user
input, but for data output, like lists and datagrids, it has... nothing.
Fortunately you can use almost all components that where crafted for JSP
over the years. This include http://code.google.com/p/jmesa/,
http://displaytag.sourceforge.net/11/ and
http://www.codeproject.com/KB/grid/DBGrid.aspx. And finally you can
crafted your own component by witting a Freemarker template.

I'm going to learn struts..
I need some info, please help me:
1) what do you hint to me, to start from Struts 1.1 and later move to Struts
2.0, or starting from Struts 2.0?
2) I usually use Netbeans. Is there an editor WYSIWHG for Netbeans, to use
Struts?
3) I know ASP.NET technology and I used lot of already developed components,
like editable grid, dropdown list and so on...does exists such component for
struts?where I can download them?
