I am using struts2 . I want that after clicking on link on 1st page it should go to 2nd jsp page.How to do that.

Thanks in Advance

Answer 1

First remember one thing since you are working with MCV2 based platform so its never advised to go from a jsp page to another jsp page directly which is being treated as bad practice.(you are not going through proper request cycle)

Request should go through Actions.Struts2 provide a convenient way to help you for such use-cases.

If in your struts config file you do not provide any Action class name framework will create an action class for you on the fly with return type as SUCCESS. This is all you need to do:

<action name=gotoJSP2>
 <result>/page2.jsp</result>
</action>

This is all you need and you are good to go.

Though you can go from one JSP to Another but make sure you have no Struts2 tags and any such framework dependence since going form one JSP to another means not calling Struts2 Dispatcher filter and not letting framework to do required work to serve you.
