Need help with simple struts question

[Jim John <ji...@yahoo.com>]

I'm very new to struts and have a simple question

I have a page called mailGroups.jsp which uses some
beans. I forward to mailGroupsEdit.jsp so that I can
use the data from the beans in mailGroups.jsp for
editing. So how do I get this information from
mailGroups to mailGroupsEdit? What do I need to do in
struts-config.xml? Both pages have references to the
beans, but the mailGroupsEdit page does not have any
data. Thank you.

You didnt mention any Action classes in between so I assume you are using 
Actions to forward from screen to the next. 

If your data structures are pretty much common across the application, I 
guess you can create the beans in session scope instead of request scope. 
This way they can be accessed from all pages/actions. Otherwise use the 
Action class to get the data for the beans, put them in the request object 
and forward to the mailGroupsEdit JSP.

Not sure if it helps
