How to do it in Struts, pls. help!

[Bob Green]

I have a main jsp, let call it jsp1. jsp1 has a hyperlink; when the link is clicked, it opens another jsp window, let name it jsp2. In jsp2, there are two buttons, Submit and Cancel. When the cancel button is clicked, it goes back to jsp1 and closes jsp2 window. When the submit button is clicked, it validates the inputs; if there is no error, it also goes back to jsp1 and closes jsp2 window. If any errors occur, it displays the error messages in jsp2.
Can someone know how to implement the above requirement with Struts?

Thanks!

Bob,
That's a lot of questions! Let's look at which Struts technologies to use for the different parts of your requirements:

"I have a main jsp, let call it jsp1. jsp1 has a hyperlink; when the link is clicked, it opens another jsp window, let name it jsp2." - javascript for pop up and struts config file for link to jsp2

"In jsp2, there are two buttons, Submit and Cancel." - html submit and cancel tags in Struts

"When the cancel button is clicked, it goes back to jsp1 and closes jsp2 window. " - again javascript to close the window and struts config for link

"When the submit button is clicked, it validates the inputs; if there is no error, it also goes back to jsp1 and closes jsp2 window. If any errors occur, it displays the error messages in jsp2." - Struts validation framework. Note that you may run into some trouble on this requirement. I don't think you can redirect to different pages easily.
