why do i get this error if the dispatch java file is associated with name = "dispatch"

frozen84 · January 29th, 2007, 07:29 AM

the dispatch.jsp file

<%@ page language="Java" %>
<%@ taglib uri="/WEB-INF/struts-html.tld" prefix="html"%>
<%@ taglib uri="/WEB-INF/struts-bean.tld" prefix="bean"%>
<html>
<head>
<title>
dispatch form bean
</title>
</head>
<body>
JUMP/STAY
     <html:form action="/dispatchUserSubmit">
      <table width="40%" border="20">
        <tr>
          <td>Method Name is :</td>
          <td><html:text property="method" /></td>
        </tr>
        <tr>
          <td colspan="2" align="center">
          <html:submit /></td>
        </tr>
       </table>

      </html:form>
</body>
</html>

i solved the problem..

the culprit turned out to be the dispatch.jsp

instead of the <html:text property="method"/>

to be used
<html:select property="method" size="12">
                     <html:option value="jump">jump</html:option>
                     <html:option value="stay">stay</html:option>
                  </html:select>

ok the above solution was for dispatch action itself..not the previously discussed problem(forward)..

frozen84 · January 29th, 2007, 09:11 AM

the coressponding change that should b done in UserDispatchAction.java is

remove the execute method and add following code..

public ActionForward jump(ActionMapping mapping,ActionForm form,HttpServletRequest request,
         HttpServletResponse response) throws Exception {

              System.out.println("JUMP USER");
              return mapping.findForward("jump");
    }

    public ActionForward stay(ActionMapping mapping,ActionForm form,HttpServletRequest request,
         HttpServletResponse response) throws Exception {

              System.out.println("STAY USER");
              return mapping.findForward("stay");
    }

i dont see any reason for the problem i described above(topic)..

i guess the culprit to be the Dispatch.java(i guess)
