Hi Ranchites,

Is it mandatory to declare the form beans tag as the first element in the struts-config.xml ?

Basically I want to know , Should we keep the order of tag elements as given i n the blank.war file that we get from apache ?

Regards

Yes you need to maintain the order

First Action Form then Action Mapping, because you refer the form name in the action mapping.

Shaan,
Struts uses a DTD which is what requires the specific order in the XML.

Here is the order (at least for Struts 1.1):

<!ELEMENT struts-config (data-sources?, form-beans?, global-exceptions?, global-forwards?, action-mappings?, controller?, message-resources*, plug-in*)>
