Re: [S2] (action on form outside of struts2)
If I specify the entire URL with http:// (etc) it works fine, but that
causes other problems for testing and whatnot that I'd like to avoid by
using relative URLs. I haven't tried ../notation, but I'll try it as a
workaround.
It just seems like there should be a way to specify a URL in the action
parameter and not have it be modified by Struts.

Re: [S2] (action on form outside of struts2)
Posted by Steve Sether <ss...@usenergyservices.com>.
To anyone who's interested in a workaround to my issue, I wound up
creating an action that does a redirect to a URL passed into the action,
and re-constructing the query string from the passed in parameters.
It's not an elegant solution, but it does work.
