Calling Action on Pageload

[Ankit Khandelwal]

Hi All

I have a create page and i what i am trying to achieve is , when a user will submit the form , s/he will navigate to the next page where s/he can see the updated data as a List.

Using Struts 2 , Add jsp >> calling an action >> calling method save >> if result success >> navigate to another page >> View List

Where do i mention an action which will call ViewDetails method and on successful return of that method what would i mention in result tag .... i mean will i mention the same page >> ViewDetail.jsp


Please help.

AFTER the data is saved successfully you can specify in struts.xml to go other action if success like this

<action name="SaveData" method="save" class="yourpackage.YourSaveAction">
	<result name="success" type="redirectAction">DisplayData</result>
</action>
<action name="DisplayData" method="execute" class="yourpackage.YourDisplayAction">
	<result name="success">display.jsp</result>
</action>

note that you need to populate saved data from resource in execute() or which ever method you want in YourDisplayAction class and then access that data in display.jsp

Thanks a lot Yogesh

I really like the way you answered my question, it shows that you have good hands on Struts 2

Please keep in touch because i am developing an application and i might face problems in future like this.


Thanks a lot once again for your help.
