If a <form> requires authentication, don't render it until the user is logged in.
If you are worried about the user's session timing out before the form is submitted, implement some sort of javascript timer that (after a period equal to a session timeout), pops up a modal login form. Successfully submitting the login form Resets the timer, makes the login form disappear, and the user is free to submit their form. > -----Original Message----- > From: Sanjaya Kumar Patel [mailto:skpate...@hotmail.com] > Sent: Friday, November 13, 2009 3:48 PM > To: Struts User Group > Subject: RE: How to get Login page while submitting a data form > > > Hi Pawel, Thanks for the insight.
