Hello:

I'm developing a web application using Struts 1.1 and Tiles. I have a tile for 
searchs consisting in a JSP with the following code:
.....
<html:form action="/search">
    <table width="100%" border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0">
        <tr>
            <td colspan="3">Buscar Noticias</td>
        </tr>
        <tr>
            <td valign="top">
                <html:text property="searchText"/>
            </td>
            <td valign="middle" width="40">
                <html:submit property="searchType">
                    <bean:message key="search.go"/>
                </html:submit>
            </td>
        </tr>
        <tr>
            <td colspan="3">
                <html:submit property="searchType">
                    <bean:message key="search.adv"/>
                </html:submit>
            </td>
        </tr>
    </table></td>
</html:form>
.......

I have an ActionForm asociated to it with the definition of searchText property 
and the get, set and reset methods. Also, there is a LookupDispatchAction 
defining the mappings according with the selected button. Here is the class:

public class SearchAction extends LookupDispatchAction {
 
 public ActionForward op_search(
           ActionMapping mapping,
           ActionForm form,
           HttpServletRequest request,
           HttpServletResponse response) {
  
           return mapping.findForward("showSearch");
 }
 
 public ActionForward op_advSearch(
           ActionMapping mapping,
           ActionForm form,
           HttpServletRequest request,
           HttpServletResponse response) {
              
           return mapping.findForward("showAdvSearch");
 }
 
 protected Map getKeyMethodMap() {
  Map<String, String> map = new HashMap <String, String> ();
        map.put("", "op_search");
        map.put("search.go", "op_search");
        map.put("search.adv", "op_advSearch");
        
        return (map);
 }
}

The line map.put("", "op_search"); is for the case I press Enter in the input 
area instead of pressing one of the defined buttons (I'm not sure if it work 
this way, maybe I don't need it).

When I execute my application in Mozila Firefox, pressing Enter in the input 
area, it works fine and forwards to showSearch correctly. But when execute it 
in Internet Explorer, I get the following exception:

SEVERE: Servlet.service() for servlet action threw exception

What's the problem here? It's mine or it's an Internet Explorer bug with Struts 
1.1? Is there another way of doing what I want (calling the correct forward 
when I press Enter in the input area), something like a default value for my 
property or another method (searchText)?

I need some help as soon as you can, please.

Thanks in advance.
