Redirecting to somewhere determined by previous page's parameters

["Allen, Daniel" <Da...@kbcfp.com>]

Hi, all.

I want to redirect a user somewhere based on a parameter that came in
from a previous page's form. The basic flow should be:

1. StartPage.jsp, contains a form that points to an SomeAction, and that
form includes the parameter "NextPage"
2. SomeAction performs some work and then gives back the result
"RedirectPage.jsp"
3. RedirectPage.jsp accesses the NextPage parameter that was given by
the form from StartPage.jsp.

Now, I know that you can use <% response.sendRedirect("urlString"); %>
to send a redirect from a JSP, and I know that you can use OGNL to
access an action's properties a la <s:property value="nextPage"/> if
there's a method SomeAction.getNextPage(), but the two syntaxes aren't
compatible, so I'm not sure how to mix the two and get what I want.

Any ideas? Also, sorry if this is completely obvious to someone more
familiar with JSPs than I am.
Thanks in advance,
~Dan Allen

I haven't tried it but I wonder if:

<result name="success" type="redirect">${nextPage}</result>

would do the job.
