Craig, thank you for this info. Craig, does this confirm with the dtd file? Also, can you tell us the site link on Internet that uses hundreds actions? It seems this approach the best in all the options we discussed. In fact, when I develop an knowlege site with forums in java. I first used struts, then I had some problems on configure file so I used another MVC approach. If I know I could do this way, I may stick with struts in this large project. Jack H.
