Can any one explain me the difference between Struts and Tapestry framework or may be the comparison between them?

The Tapestry tutorial is updated here: http://tapestry.apache.org/tapestry-tutorial.html
In terms of differences, they are vast.
Struts is an action-oriented framework; it rounds out a few of the roughest edges of the Servlet API and makes it marginally easier to link Actions (the Struts equivalent of a Servlet) to views (usually JSPs). However, it leaves all the heavy lifting to you.
Tapestry is a component oriented framework: it does all the heavy lifting. Components mean that Tapestry knows much more about the structure of your application, and can do lots of busy work and plumbing such as figuring out good URLs and responding to them automatically: you just concern yourself with your page classes and methods. It does tons more besides.
Tapestry does a lot, but also tries to stay our of your way when you don’t want it.
Finally, Struts has productivity features that are unmatched anywhere: the best exception reporting for when things go wrong, and live class reloading so that you can change your code and immediately see the change in your browser.
