struts forward pass parameters

[rob harvey]

Hi - is there still no support for passing parameters on accross forwards - i.e. I call an action with a parameter and i then want to call my lookupdispatchaction with the parameters the original was passed.
Will i still just have to create a subclass of ActionForward and manipulate the path myself?
Cheers.

There has always been a way to pass parameters on to the next action:

String parm1 = request.getParameter("parm1");
 
return new ActionForward(mapping.findForward("success").getPath()+"?parm1="+parm1, false);

If you want to pass parameters from a JSP, just include the parameters as hidden fields and they will be passed when the form is submitted.
