[Bibhudutta Pradhan]

I want to forward to an action/jsp from jsp page like this.

<s:set name="v1" value="id"/>
 
<s:if test="%{#v1=='AAA'}">
     forward to an action
</s:if>
<s:else>
     forward to an jsp
</s:else>

How can i achieve this ?

Why? That's not an appropriate action for a JSP. Why are not such decisions being made in the action?

[Bibhudutta Pradhan]

Because I want to display data(from database) in the same page.

That makes no sense. If you forward, you're not on the "same page" any longer.

Ok. sir. Thanks for your reply.

Please help me how would i display data from a database in the same page on a click of a submit button(In struts2)

please help.

I don't use struts, so I can't help you with specifics. I just know that forward was not the right approach.

[Bibhudutta Pradhan]

I am also new to struts.

I used to display data from Database in the same page(in servlet/jsp) on click of a submit button like this :

info.jsp
............................................

<% 
Object info = request.getAttribute("info");
if(info!=null)
{
   //display  info
}

1)The first time the info.jsp page is called info is null.Hence dont show info.
2)When the button is clicked servlet is called. the servlet gets the data from the database and then forward the data to the info.jsp page, setting info as attribute.
Now in the info.jsp info is not null. displaying the result.

I want to know is this the right approach to display data in the same page?
And now i want to do it in the same process in struts.

Sounds like what you need is Ajax.

You can try location.href=url on click of submit button
through javascript. In the "url" part you can mention the struts mapping url.
