Hi There, Youi don't even need to give _javascript. As when your jsp comples, it replaces your form tag attibute name with the value u provided under action attribute name. So if your acton tag is like this:-
<action path="/help" name="helpActionForm" scope="request" type="com.expensys.expensyswt.struts.action.DisplayHelp" /> Then you can use "document.helpActionForm.submit()" in the jsp file to submit a form like this: <html:form action="/help.do" method="POST"> .... </html:form> Regards, Buland --- Sunil Sahu <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Adam, > > Name parameter in form tag is optional.
