   The main aim of the MVC architecture  is to separate the business logic and application data from the presentation data to the user.
     
4. Struts Architecture
   Struts is an open source framework used for developing J2EE web applications using Model View Controller (MVC) design pattern. It uses and extends the Java Servlet API to encourage developers to  adopt an MVC architecture.
     
5. How Struts Works?
   The basic purpose of the Java Servlets in struts is to handle requests made by the client or by web browsers. In struts JavaServerPages (JSP) are used to design the dynamic web pages. In struts, servlets helps to route request which has been made by the web browsers to the appropriate ServerPage.

12. Custom Validators Example
    In this tutorial you will learn how to develop Custom Validators in your Struts 1.3 applications. Struts Validator framework provides many validation rules that can be used in the web applications. If you application needs special kind of validation, then you can extend the validator framework to develop your own validation rule.
      
13. - Developing Application with Struts Tiles
    In this lesson we will create Struts Tiles Applications.
      
14. - Using tiles-defs.xml in Tiles Application

    RoseIndia.Net is the ultimate Struts Resources for the web development community using Struts in their development. Struts is ultimate framework for the development of web applications based on MVC framework using JSP/Servlet as base.
      
    Struts Actions Examples
      
19. Struts Built-In Actions
    - In this section we  will give a quick look to the  few of built-in utility actions shipped with Struts APIs. These built-in utility actions provide different functionalities useful to  diverse applications. 
        
20. - Struts Dispatch Action Example
    Here in this example you will learn more about Struts Dispatch Action that will help you grasping the concept better.
     
21. - Struts Forward Action
    In this section we  will learn about Struts ForwardAction (org.apache.struts.actions.ForwardAction). The ForwardAction is one of the Built-in Actions that is shipped with struts framework.
        
22. - Struts LookupDispatchAction Example
    Struts LookupDispatch Action (org.apache.struts.actions.LookupDispatchAction) is one of the Built-in Actions provided along with the struts framework.
     
23. - Struts MappingDispatchAction Example
    Struts MappingDispatch Action (org.apache.struts.actions.MappingDispatchAction) is one of the Built-in Actions provided along with the struts framework.
      
24. - STRUTS ACTION - AGGREGATING ACTIONS IN STRUTS
    In this article we will see how to achieve this. Struts provides four important classes for this
    purpose. 
      
25. Aggregating Actions In Struts Revisited -
    In my previous article Aggregating Actions in Struts , I have given a brief idea of how to create action aggregations. An action aggregation is a grouping of a set of related actions into a single unified action in order to eliminate the need to write a new action class for every action. In this part, I will walk through a full-fledged practical example of each of the types presented in Part I namely the DispatchAction , LookupDispatchAction , MappingDispatchAction and ActionDispatcher along with two new aggregations which slightly differ in syntax but are more efficient than the previous ones.
     
26. - Set the mapping name example
    Set the mapping name to the action attribute of html:link
      
27. Set the action name example
    Set the action name to the action attribute of html:link  -  
     
28. - Configuring Struts DataSource Manager on Tomcat 5
    In this lesson we will create example to Configure Struts DataSource Manager on Tomcat 5.
       
29. - STRUTS INTERNATIONALIZATION
    In this tutorial we shall see how to implement Internationalization (abbreviated as I18N) in Struts.
         
30. - Developing Struts PlugIn
    This article show you how to develop custom Struts PlugIn and incorporate in your Struts Web Applications. After completing this tutorial you will be able to create your own custom PlugIn for your web application.
      
31. - Struts Nested Tag
    The tag library â??nestedâ?? is included in Struts 1.1. In this tutorial we are going to explain what are the features of nested tag library and how you can use it. We can manage nested beans easily with the help of struts nested tag library.
      
32. Struts Logic Tags Examples
    The Struts Logic tags provides the functionally that enables the programmers to generate html output based on different control statements like looping, iteration, if, else. etc..
     
    • Introduction to Struts Logic Tags
      Struts logic tags are conditional tags that replaces scriptlets in the jsp files.
       
    • Logic Empty and notEmpty Tags
      - Tag evaluation of the nested body content occurs only if the specified value is either absent (i.e. null), an empty string (i.e. a java.lang.String with a length of zero)
        
    • Logic Equal and notEqual Tags -
      - if the requested variable is equal to the specified value then this tag is used to evaluate the contents contained in the nested body parts of this tag
        
    • Logic greaterEqual and greaterThan Tags -
      - This tag compares the variable against the specified constant value. If the variable is greater than or equal to the specified value then the nested body contents of this tag is evaluated
        
    • Logic lessEqual and lessThan Tags -
      This tag compares the variable against the specified constant value. If the variable is less than or equal to the specified value then the nested body contents of this tag is evaluated
        
    • Logic match and notMatch Tags -
      This tag matches the variable specified as a String against the specified constant value. If the value is a substring  then the nested body content of this tag is evaluated.
        
    • Logic present and notPresent Tags -
      This tag checks the current request and depending on which attribute is specified, it evaluates the nested body content of this tag only if the specified value is present.
