After browsing through all the hints and tips I got from here, I started building an initial form-setup-action using DispatchAction with a parameter dispatch that should be set to list, create, edit or delete, depending on the action wanted. That form-setup-action should pre-populate the form as needed and then forward to the apropriate action for display. There are two further actions; one for listing all existing entries (form-list-action, a LookupDispatchAction) and another for displaying an individual entry for editing (form-edit-action).
Now I tried to stick it all together passing parameters around. But exactly that doesn't work as expected: On the list-form I present a list of all entries available together with submit-buttons for edit/delete-actions for each individual entry. There also is a single create button for creating new entries. Pressing the create-button invokes a create-method in the form-list-action that calls a forward named "create". That forward points back to the form-setup-action with "?dispatch=create" added to the path. The form-setup-action should then forward to the appropriate form-create-action, but it looks like the dispatch parameter isn't passed on to the form-setup-action.
I wonder if this approach is ok or if there are better ones? How could the parameters be passed from one action to another (I couldn't find any parameter one could add to a <forward>-tag to pass paramaters that way.
Thanks for your help, Alexander
