[jQuery] Re: jquery + struts action

[Marta Figueiredo]

I'm trying to call a struts action using ajax. The action is correctly 
called. The problem is that the action forward method is called but it 
is not executing.
My action is defined as follow:
<action path="/jsp-listreports" 
parameter="/WEB-INF/reportmanagement/listreports.jsp" scope="request" 
type="weboncampus.action.reportmanagement.ForwardActionReports" />
       <action path="/listReports" 
type="weboncampus.action.reportmanagement.ActionGetReportsList" 
scope="request">
           <forward name="list" path="/jsp-listreports.do" 
redirect="false"/>
       </action>

Shouldn't the page be automatically redirected to listreports.jsp after 
calling listReports.do?

Marta - what exactly are you trying to do? By using an Ajax call, you
are going to get a response that should be the output of the forwarded
action.

$.ajax({
  url: '/listReports.do',
  type:'post',
  cache: false,
  dataType:'xml',
  success: function (resp) {
    // do something with resp
  }
});

Hi

I need to call an action using jquery..

The following piece of code works correctly for it is calling and
executing code the correct struts action. However.. the action itseft is
not being correcty forwarded. I don't think that the problem is the
action, for if I call it in other ways the forward works. Any ideas?

$.ajax({
               url: '/listReports.do',
               type:'post',
               cache: false,
               dataType:'xml'

           });

thanks
