LookupDispatchAction default

[Brian Sayatovic/AMIG <BS...@amig.com>]

I'd like to be able to have someone hit my action, /admin/list.do, without 
having to specify a submit paramater.  However, the action is a subclass 
of LookupDispatchAction whci requires that the request parameter be 
supplied.  Looking in the struts source code, it would be nice if the 
LookupDispatchAction could fall back to a default or not consider 'null' 
to be a bad value and just use 'null' as a key to the lookup Map.  For 
now, any link or redirect to the page must specify what I consider to be 
the default action -- refresh -- on the URL: 
/admin/list/do?submit=Refresh.

Is there another way to do this?  Is it worth suggesting that 
LookupDispatchAction support a default or null mapping?

Regards,
Brian.

unspecified() is the method you want look at the javadoc.

you do need the method name though

/admin/list.do?method

I saw that using "submit" as the parameter name causes problems so i 
wouldn't use that.
