Better exception message on FormTag

           Summary: Better exception message on FormTag
           Product: Struts
           Version: Nightly Build
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Enhancement
          Priority: Other
         Component: Custom Tags
        AssignedTo: dev@struts.apache.org
        ReportedBy: nagoya@felipeal.net


Hi,

I came across the following error message when setting up a very simple Struts
application (consisted of only 2 Actions and 1 ActionForm):

org.apache.jasper.JasperException: Cannot retrieve definition for form bean null

After hours (literally) strugling with struts-config.xml, I finally realized
that was caused by the <html:form> using the wrong Action (the one without an
ActionForm associated with).

I could have easily fixed this bug in my application much I had received a
message such as:

org.apache.jasper.JasperException: Cannot retrieve definition for form bean null
on action /actionNoBean

So, I'm providing a patch for this improvement.

Regards,

Felipe
