Do I need to make use the struts tags <s:form action="doUpload" method="post" enctype="multipart/form-data"> <s:file name="upload" label="File"/> <s:submit/> </s:form> to make use of File upload functionality that struts 2 is providing ? Can I achieve the same functionality without struts 2 tags ? if yes can i know the conventions need to be incorporated in action or in configuration files to achieve the same ? Shortly, yes, you can. Then the configuration and conventions used by the action remains the same. If you use the <form tag then you should place the action attribute value with the

Im trying to retrieve data from DB using hibernate ORM and get the out-put as json result using Struts2. Everything work up to retrieving data from DB, but for the json result I get only {} . I think I have done something wrong with my coding. But need some help to figure it out. Here is my Action class : @ParentPackage("json-default") public class SocialIconsAction extends ActionSupport { private List<TiendayaCurrencies> _currency; public List<TiendayaCurrencies> getCurrency() { return _currency; } public void setCurrency(List<TiendayaCurrencies> _currency) { this._currency = _currency; }

I want to handle errors differently for AJAX requests vs normal requests. How do I identify whether a request is AJAX or not in Struts2 actions ? You should check if the Request Header X-Requested-With is present and equals to XMLHttpRequest . Note that not all the AJAX requests have this header, for example Struts2 Dojo requests don't send it; if you instead are generating AJAX calls with Struts2-jQuery (or with any other new AJAX framework), it is there. You can check if it's present by using Firebug's Net module ... for example, when you vote on Stack Overflow ;) To check it from within a

I am creating a web app with Struts2, and I am having an issue with the mapped actions working with any url. In my struts.xml file, I have configured a package with a namespace of "/registration" with a few actions, with the main one being "register". The context root of my app is "app/test". To access the registration form, I can go to "localhost:8080/app/test/registration/register.action" and it loads up my form and works great. However, if anything is added to the URL after the namespace, such as "localhost:8080/app/test/registration/arbitrary/text/here/register.action", the form is still

I am developing contact manager in struts with options(add,delete,modify,print). I am thinking to map multiple actions(map multiple actions to the same class struts 2.3) to the same class( ContactManager ). I want to know whether it is correct or whether there is need to write separate action for each action? Andrea Ligios One good way to go, imho , is to use one Action for every action you have to perform, each one extending its last-forked parent Actions, like: BaseAction | |----------BaseReportAction | |----- ExcelReportAction | |----- PDFReportAction | |----- CSVReportAction | | |---------
