Struts cancel works different from other buttons.You can check isCancelled() in Action class for boolean return when it is being pressed.Based on return you can forward to your desired page by configuring mapping.findForward with the URL corresponding to your desired page.

hi Amit,

in struts 1.1 --- it will work fine ..

in struts 1.2.9--- you have to add
------------------------
isCancellable="true"
-------------------------- in action attribute(struts-config.xml)

As seetharaman already mentioned, you don't need to add cancellable="true" to the action mapping for a Struts 1.0 or 1.1 application. The cancel button will work fine without it. This attribute was not added until Struts 1.2.9.

The org.apache.struts.action.Action class that your Action class extends has an isCancelled() method. If you call this method in your Action class, you can tell whether or not the cancel button was pressed, and if so, take some action. Example:
<blockquote>code:
<pre name="code" class="core">if (isCancelled()) {
return mapping.findForward("cancelled");
} else {
// do some validation or other logic
return mapping.findForward("success");
}
</pre>
</blockquote>
