-                <p>
-                    The purpose of this section is to highlight the new
-                    features since the
-                    <a href="release-notes-1_3_5.html">Version 1.3.5 distribution.</a>

-                    change logs directly through both

-                </p>
-                
-                <h4>Action ID</h4>
-                <p>An action mapping may now may be given an identifier by the new <code>actionId</code>
-                property which uniquely identifies the mapping within a module:</p>
-                
-<pre>
-&lt;action path="/person/view" type="..." input="..."&gt;
-    &lt;set-property property="actionId" value="viewPersonAction" /&gt;
-    &lt;forward name="success" path="person.jsp" /&gt;
-&lt;/action&gt;
-</pre>
-                
-        <p>Just as the <code>TilesRequestProcessor</code> could recognize a tile definition
-        and resolve it to the intended JSP, so does Struts now have built-in
-        recognition for URIs that begin with an <code>actionId</code> and will automatically
-        translate forwards. Both these forwards below will be resolved internally
-        to <code>/person/view.do</code> (with parameters included):
-        </p>
-
-<pre>
-&lt;forward name="success" path="viewPersonAction" /&gt;
-&lt;forward name="success" path="viewPersonAction?fruit=banana&amp;color=yellow" /&gt;
-</pre>
-
-        <p>You can effectively eliminate all URI management throughout the Struts configuration
-        files <b>and</b> within JSP. The tag libraries are also updated to recognize the 
-        <code>actionId</code>:</p>
-
-<pre>
-&lt;html:form action="savePersonAction"&gt;...&lt;/html:form&gt;
-&lt;html:link action="viewPersonAction"&gt;...&lt;/html:link&gt;
-</pre>
-
-        <p>Note: It is good practice to name the <code>actionId</code> as <em>entityAction</em>
-        to distinguish the identifier from, perhaps, a Tiles definition named <em>entityPage</em>.</p>
-
-        <h4>Internationalization (I18N) Tag Properties</h4>
-
-        <p>Struts tag libraries now include the HTML I18N properties. This allows sites that 
-        specialize in internationalization to specify both bi-directional text and language
-        at the tag level:</p>
-
-<pre>
-&lt;html:link action="viewPersonAction" dir="ltor" lang="es"/&gt;vea a persona&lt;/html:link&gt;
-</pre>
-
-        <h4>Dynamic Link Parameters</h4>
-
-        <p>The Struts <code>&lt;html:link&gt;</code>, <code>&lt;html:frame&gt;</code>, 
-        <code>&lt;html:rewrite&gt;</code> tag libaries now allow their bodies to nest the new 
-        <code>&lt;html:param&gt;</code> tag. This is useful when it is awkward (or inappropriate)
-        to pass in existing parameters as a <code>Map</code>, which is still supported and will 
-        be appened to any present <code>&lt;html:param&gt;</code> tags:</p>
-
-<pre>
-&lt;html:link action="viewPersonAction"&gt;
-    View Profile of A Struts Developer
-    &lt;html:param name="id" value="1" /&gt;
-    &lt;html:param name="name" value="Ted Husted" /&gt;
-&lt;/html:link&gt;
-</pre>
-
-        <h4>Property MessageResources  Modes</h4>
-        <p><code>PropertyMessageResources</code> now has a <i>compatibility mode</i>
-        option which allows it to be configured to operate in modes compatible with
-        either <i>JSTL</i> or <code>PropertyResourceBundle</code> (as well as the
-        <i>backwardly compatible</i> default mode). To use the new modes configure
-        the the message resources in the <code>struts-config.xml</code> in the
-        following way (<strong>note</strong> the use of the <strong>key</strong> attribute
-        in <code>&lt;set-property&gt;</code>): </p>
-                
-<pre>
-&lt;message-resources parameter="...."&gt;
-    &lt;set-property key="mode" value="JSTL"/&gt;     // JSTL mode
-&lt;/message-resources&gt;
-
-&lt;message-resources parameter="...."&gt;
-    &lt;set-property key="mode" value="resource"/&gt; // PropertyResourceBundle mode
-&lt;/message-resources&gt;
