Re-used Action class

["Chadha, Deepak (BLM)" <De...@express-scripts.com>]

Hi,
I have a (hopefully) simple question.
I have a ActionForm / Action pair invoked from several JSP pages (actually the JSP fragment is included into several JSP pages).

I am trying to use the ActionForm.validate method in combination with the <html:errors/> tag.  The problem is that when there is a Form validation error, the INPUT property of the mapping is used to send the user back where he came from.  However, there can only be 1 INPUT specified for a given mapping.

In my case, I want to invoke the same action from several pages, and want the user to be sent back to correct errors on the page they were on.

Any ideas?

Thanks
Deepak

Deepak:

If i understand your problem correctly, the following should work (for case of two jsps - you can expand to more of course..):  In your struts-config.xml simply have say two different action mappings, call them say action1 and action2.  Make them both point to the same Action class but have the input field point to jsp1 and jsp2 respectively. In your jsps of course you will want to change the action of your
form to action1.do or action2.do.. Should work..

Regards,
Geeta
