This tag is used to create a URL.
You can use the <param> tag inside the body to provide additional request parameters. If the value of a param is an Array or an Iterable all the values will be added to the URL.
NOTE:
By default request parameters will be separated using escaped ampersands (i.e., &. This is necessary for XHTML compliance, however, when using the URL generated by this tag with the <s:property> tag, the escapeAmp attribute should be used to disable ampersand escaping.
NOTE:
When includeParams is 'all' or 'get', the parameter defined in a <param> tag will take precedence over any params included due to the includeParams attribute. For example, in Example 3 below, if there is a id parameter in the url where the page this tag is included like http://<host>:<port>/<context>/editUser.action?id=3333&name=John the generated url will be http://<host>:<port>/<context>/editUser.action?id=22&name=John because the parameter defined in the param tag will take precedence.
The property struts.url.includeParams can be used to set the default value of the includeParams attribute.
See Constant Configuration for further information.
