Hi! I would say you can use ActionForm as a bean to pass values from your action to your JSP. AFAIK ActionForm is just a bean with some convenience methods.

In other words, there won't be a form submitted from the page. Is there a compelling reason to use an action form in these cases. I've just been using tags such as c:out with my own beans put in scope. I've noticed that some people use the ActionForm and jsp form tags to do this same data transfer. That's strikes me as using the forms not necessarily in the way they were meant to be. But I'll admit to not being entirely clear on what seems to be a simple topic, actionForms that is. Any recommendations, with pros and cons. _______________________________________________ Join Excite! - http://www.excite.com The most personalized portal on the Web! --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
