 <forward name="list" path="/list.jsp"/>   lik this i want to forward to a servlet.  how to give the path.  i have a servlet which i can call from the browser like the following.

http://127.0.0.1:8080/dvdapp2/action      .  and i have configured in web.xml like the following.  

<servlet>
      <servlet-name>error</servlet-name>

  </servlet>
  
  <servlet-mapping>

      <url-pattern>/action</url-pattern>
  </servlet-mapping>

ServletException: Cannot find bean element in scope null

[Karl <ka...@webartjapan.com>]

I'm getting an exception [ServletException: Cannot find bean element in scope 
null] when I try to access form data from a jsp page.

I've got the following code in my action class:

public final class ContractsSearchAction extends ContractBaseAction {

    public ActionForward perform(
      ActionMapping mapping,
      ActionForm form,
      HttpServletRequest request,
      HttpServletResponse response) {

        ContractForm workForm = (ContractForm)form;

        ContractsSearchCommand cmd = new ContractsSearchCommand();
        // Would do some setting here for criteria from workForm
        cmd.execute();

        ContractListForm outForm = new ContractListForm();
        outForm.setContracts(cmd.getContracts());

        request.setAttribute("contractListForm", outForm);
		
        return (mapping.findForward("results"));
    }
}


The JSP page it goes to has the following:

                <logic:iterate id="element" name="contractListForm" 
property="contracts" type="data.ContractBDO">
                    <tr>
                        <td>
                            <bean:write name="element" property="fullName"/>
                        </td>
                        <td class="button">
                            <html:form action="contract_select.do" 
name="contractForm" type="view.ContractForm">
                                <html:hidden name="element" property="id"/>
                                <html:submit value="Edit"/>
                            </html:form>
                        </td>
                    </tr>
                </logic:iterate>


The exception is:

javax.servlet.ServletException: Cannot find bean element in scope null
        at 
org.apache.jasper.runtime.PageContextImpl.handlePageException(PageContextImpl.java:530)
        at 
org.apache.jsp.contracts_list_jsp._jspService(contracts_list_jsp.java:71)
... and so on


What am I doing wrong here?
