I want to know how struts application. I guess Eclipse 3.1 does not support by
itself.

First of all, if at all possible, I'd recommend you upgrade to the latest version of ecplipse, which is 3.2.1.

Secondly, you should go to the Castillo link and get the Web tools package (WTP) by clicking on the icon for "I build web applications".

Then, follow the instructions at this link for installing the JBoss IDE.

Hi,
I am unable to find the web tools package link in the page. What is the procedure for
getting the plug ins for installaing structs application in Eclipse.

Once you've downloaded and installed Eclipse 3.2, you use its "Update Manager" to install the rest. This link explains how it works. Note that these tools are not specific to Struts. They are for building any J2EE website.

Hi,
I am getting this error when I search using �Update Manager�. Can you please tell me the solution for that.

The cause of network connection problems could be anything from your network cable being unplugged to complicated firewall issues. If you are behind a firewall that uses a proxy server, you can get around that by changing the settings in eclipse. To do this, select window-->preferences and then select internet-->Proxy settings.

Hi,
I got the network issue resolved. Thanks.
