Action with no forward?
I would like to call an Action (with no validation), but remain on the
current JSP.
I know I could probably just forward back to the current JSP, but I'd prefer
to have the Action class run with no forward at all (so no screen repaint).
Is this possible in Struts?
Thanks,
Michael

If you're willing to use standards-compliant browsers, you can use the iframe
element - which allows you to imbed a frame within your page. The beauty of
this is that you can even make this frame hidden and use javascript to populate
values once the hidden iframe reloads. Really slick stuff - you can make an
HTML interface behave like an applet!
There's a good article at:

Yes this is possible.
1. The hidden frame
Although I don't recommend doing this unless you **absolutely** have to.
You can use frames. Make one frame hidden and post your form to that frame.
...
<html:form name="frm" action="/doAction" target="hiddenFrameId">
...
Although I don't see the reason for *not* wanting to see your page refresh with any changed
values, I guess I always figured that was obvious.
2. Kill the request
