Read a form bean property to pass on to a forward

I am using struts 1.3. I have a an action I am reusing in 3 different cases. The form bean backing this has a property that has the complete path(passed from the jsp) to which the action should forward in case of succe开发者_StackOverflowss/failure(the path is different for each case depending on what the user is doing). How do I specify this for the input attribute of the action in the struts config to read from that form bean property.

What you can do is return a dynamic ActionForward from your Action class. This lets you use an ActionForward that isn't defined in yourstruts-config.xml

return new ActionForward(path_to_forward, redirect_true_or_false);

This doesn't help you for the input, which expects a JSP and not an ActionForward, but you should be able to do that in the ActionForm's validate() method. The first parameter passed into that method is an ActionMapping. On that object, you should be able to call setInput(String) with the path of your JSP. I have not tried this, but it looks like it should work.
