SESSION INTRODUCTION

Action tag

• The JSP specification provides a standard tag called Action tag used
within JSP code.

• It is used to remove or eliminate Scriptlet code from your JSP code as


JSP Scriptlets are obsolete and are not considered nowadays.

SESSION INTRODUCTION

Action tag
• The action tag is also implemented to streamline flow between pages
and to employ a Java Bean.

element is:

Syntax:

SESSION DESCRIPTION (Cont..)

Basic Attributes of Action Tags

Two basic attributes are commonly used for all action tags. These are:

1. id: The id attribute defines unique action elements and allows actions to be
referenced within the JSP page. When the action creates an object's instance, the id
attribute is used to refer to it.

2. Scope: The scope attribute is used for identifying an action's life cycle. It correlates
with the id attribute because the scope attribute is used to establish that particular
object's lifespan associated with the ID.
