Hi Geeta, et. al
I typed too soon. I am still getting a servlet error
even with this modified code and not getting a the
println produced.
playThis action:
HttpSession session = request.getSession(false);
if (session == null)
System.out.println("null session");
String file =
(String)session.getAttribute("file");
I confirmed that the file object was in the session
before the actionMapping.findForward("playThis") and
with the getSession(false) I am not creating the
session and should be only retrieving the session I
confirmed existed and was populated before the
findForward. What am I obscenely not recognizing
here? Many thanks for any enlightenment.
