The "path" you pass to the <html:form> action attribute is not a url, it's a lookup key into the 
Action table.  Struts generates a proper url for you based on the type of mapping you select (prefix 
or file extension).  It strips the file extension so that you can put /myAction.do or just 
/myAction in the action attribute.  

It does seem arbitrary to strip a piece of the key though.  


I'm not sure why you want your pages to look static but you could try mapping *.html to the 
Struts servlet.  Also, using the .do path extension does not reveal anything about what 
technology you're using to generate the page.  It could be a static html file.
