Hi, all. Iam new to
struts. As a part of starting my journey towards struts, I started with a simple struts application. But I am facing problem with either actionForm or actionClass or someother. Here is entire application. Please go through this and help me.
My application location : C:\Tomcat 5.5\webapps\myStruts (In this, My application name is myStruts.)
Contents of myStruts folder : WEB-INF folder, First.jsp, Second.jsp.
C:\Tomcat 5.5\webapps\myStruts\First.jsp code
==============================================
<%@ taglib uri="/tags/struts-bean" prefix="bean" %>
<%@ taglib uri="/tags/struts-html" prefix="html" %>
<%@ taglib uri="/tags/struts-logic" prefix="logic" %>
<html:html>
<head>
<title>First.jsp</title>
</head>
<body>
<html:form action="/first.do">
<html:errors />
<table>
<tr>
<td>Enter Your Nick Name: </td>
<td><input type="text" name="nick" /></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Enter Your Lucky Number: </td>
<td><input type="text" name="lucky" /></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td></td>
<td align="right"><input type="submit" value="Submit" /></td>
</tr>
</table>
</html:form>
</body>
</html:html>

<head>
<title>Second.jsp</title>
</head>
<body>
