Getting property with s:action tag
I have been playing with the s:action tag and have found it impossible to
reference any property of the action in a struts2 like way. If I call an
action, ActionOne.java and return success then I am redirected to a page
called one-success.jsp which has the following:
<s:action namespace="/mynamespace" name="actionTwo" id="myActionTwo" />
I would like to be able to reference myActionTwo and get a property called
myActionTwoProperty. I have tried many variations but if I use:
<s:property value="top"/>
<s:property value="[0].top"/>
<s:property value="[1].top"/>
Then the action at the top of the stack is always ActionOne or an instance
of com.opensymphony.xwork2.DefaultTextProvider. It is never myActionTwo.
This is true whether or not I am within the <s:action> tag.
>From this discussion here:
http://www.nabble.com/-S2--s:action-in-value-stack--td21551483.html
It says that:
Outside the action tag, "firstAction" is on top of the stack, and
"secondAction" can be referenced by name.
But I don't understand what it means by 'referenced by name'. Does anyone
know of a Struts2 like way to reference the properties of the actionTwo?
Currently I am in the actionTwo and setting the value I need into the
request object where the JSP can then retrieve it as described in the
Struts2 wiki entry:

"By name" means by the id in the "action" tag, like:
<s:action var="myaction" ..>
</s:action>
<s:property value="#myaction.someProperty" />

Re: Getting property with s:action tag
Posted by doahh <ga...@prodia.co.uk>.
Looking again at the post from:
http://www.nabble.com/-S2--s:action-in-value-stack--td21551483.html
I see that the answer is
<s:action namespace="/mynamespace" name="actionTwo" id="myActionTwo"
/>
<s:property value="#myActionTwo.myActionTwoProperty" />
I didn't understand the significance of the '#' symbol which I assume means
to reference by id or var. Anyway, the above works so I am happy.
