All,
This is regarding Struts 2.0. I've just ran into what I believe is a bug in WebSphere 6.0 and 6.1 where the filter chain does not get hit on certain RequestDispatcher includes. So I have two options here: 1. Get IBM to fix the bug 2. Rewrite the Filter Dispatcher as a Servlet My experience is that if I engage IBM my bug will be fixed some time in 2008 (seriously). I'm supposed to be in production before that. So let me know if this is a terrible idea. I'm going to take the filter dispatcher and turn it into a servlet. We do not serve static files from struts. If we do wish to server static files, I will write a filter specifically for that. Darren
