Dude. It's Saturday. Some of us do other things besides read the Struts mailing list on Saturday. AFAICT you posted these one hour and fifteen minutes apart. Even if it *wasn't* Saturday, what would you have expected to have happen? If anybody answers *any* question on a public, volunteer list, it's because we *want* to help people. It's a gift, having somebody else do our work for us, our research, our trial-and-error, our debug cycles, our homework. The gift of time and knowledge is not something to be taken lightly. Some really great folks have spent a lot of time creating WebWork/S2 and all its associated components. A lot more people help out in whatever way they can on the mailing list. It's not all they do--they have families, jobs, lives.

That depends entirely upon how you're "getting to" the action in question. From a link? From a form? From an internally-generated request? Why wouldn't you just put the id in a form or URL? >> What is the difference between these two methods? Preparable is an interface that defines a routine that will be run when the Action is instantiated. You can do whatever you want in it; it is not directly related to your original question. ServletRequestAware is an interface that provides an HttpServletRequest setter for your action. Since it directly ties your action to the servlet specification, it is probably not recommended, particularly since there are other existing ways to do what you want, namely ParameterAware or using the built-in XWork type conversion functionality and passing an ID via a URL parameter or form value and providing a setter in your action.
