A action forward can be used to forward to a jsp or action mapping. There are two different action forwards. The global action forward and the local action forward. You can access a global action forward on each jsp or action class. A local action forward can only be accessed by the assigned action class.
What is a action mapping?
The action mapping is the heart of struts. It managed all actions between the application and the
user. You can define which action will be executed by creating a action mapping.

In the second step you create a global action forward. Go back to the outline window of MyEclipse and choose Global Forward
Choose the Forward Scope Global Forward. For name use the same you have set in your default page. The Global Forward refers to your action mapping.
