[Opensource] Transition and redirection

Im not 100% sure of what you are asking, however this may help (or i may be
way off track)

We use a generic.jsp that you set certain parameters in your controller.
something like

<bean:define id="formaction" property="formAction" type="java.lang.String"/>
<logic:notPresent property="formAction">
  <bean:define id="formaction" value="set some default contoller here"
type="java.lang.String"/>
</logic:notPresent>
<logic:present property="formAction">
  <bean:define id="formaction" property="formAction"
type="java.lang.String"/>
</logic:present>
<form name="mainform" action="<%= formaction %>" method="POST">
....
</form>

set the formaction value in your controller
i.e.
response.addOutput(new Output("formAction", "/expresso/Controller.do"));

Then setup the transition (as required) in your controller and output it
within the form tag. There are several ways to do this via the transition
tags or via the <logic:iterate  id="oneTrans" property="transitions">
technique to output several transitions without hardcoding any names, etc.

Hope this helps

Hi folks,


I send the same question under different subject. Sorry for that.


I need some help.
I have a controller that must provide a Transition to a state in a different

Controller back to the jsp in such a way that the when pressed the 
transition will redirect the user to the required Controller and state.
Here is the situation
1) show.jsp has a form which action is set to CurrentController
Upon sertain event the controller will return a transition trContinue that 
will take the user to NextController with a state nextState.
2) As a result in the show.jsp there will be a form which action is set to 
CurrentController and a Transition that is supposed to take the user to 
another Controller

Is this possible to accomplish?
Thanks
