HI ALL,

In my application i am using struts module concept..

In the Home page I am having two links

1.<html:link forward="Guest" styleClass="linksorangebold">Emergency login</html:link>

2.<html:link forward="NewPatient" styleClass="linksorangebold">Patient registration</html:link>

---------------------
here is my web.xml
------------------
<servlet>
<servlet-name>action</servlet-name>
<servlet-class>org.apache.struts.action.ActionServlet</servlet-class>
<init-param>
<param-name>config</param-name>
<param-value>/WEB-INF/struts-config.xml</param-value>
</init-param>
<init-param>
<param-name>config/pd</param-name>
<param-value>/WEB-INF/struts-pd-config.xml</param-value>
</init-param>

</servlet>

my struts-config.xml
------------------------
<global-forwards>
<forward
name="NewPatient"
path="/switch.do?page=/npregistration.do&prefix=/pd"/>

<forward
name="Guest"
path="emergencylogin.do"/>

</global-forwards>

<action-mappings>
<action
path="/emergencylogin"
parameter="/guestlogin.jsp"
type="org.apache.struts.actions.ForwardAction"/>

<action
path="/switch"
type="org.apache.struts.actions.SwitchAction"/>

</ation-mappings>

-----------------
struts-pd-config.xml
------------------------
<global-forwards>

<forward
name="NewPatient"
path="/patientregistration.jsp"/>
<forward
name="Home"
path="/switch.do?page=/home.do&prefix="/>

</global-forwards>

<action-mappings>

<action
path="/npregistration"
parameter="/patientregistration.jsp"
type="org.apache.struts.actions.ForwardAction"/>

<action
path="/switch"
type="org.apache.struts.actions.SwitchAction"/>


</action-mappings>
-----------------------------------

In the New patient page i v link called

If you look at the fine print in the documentation, it says that module is only valid if the link refers to an action instead of a forward. I had briefly put up a post suggesting this, but deleted it after I re-read the documentation.

Why all this convoluted business with a forward calling the switch action which in turn calls another action? why not just do this?

<html:link action="/home" module="">home</html:link>

Hi sreenivas
Merril is right and moreover you may also try
<forward
name="Guest"
path="/emergencylogin.do"/>

Please refer to the foll also.
