Tiles def not recognized by ForwardAction 

I'm moving a running app from Struts1.1 to Struts 1.24. 
My problem is with the deprecation of NoOpAction and it's replacement 
with ForwardAction.
I've crawled through the forums enough to see that there's been some 
problems in this area - ForwardAction doesn't understand that a 
parameter containing ".fred"  points to a Tiles def named .fred
I haven't found any solution.
Can someone point me in the right direction?

RE: Tiles def not recognized by ForwardAction

Posted by "David G. Friedman" <hu...@ix.netcom.com>.
Les,

I think the forward in v1.2 is supposed to be more like this:

<action path="/Home" forward=".home." />

Regards,
David
