</action> 7)For using action mapping in struts.xml it creates an instane of ClientAction Action class, which is responsible for processing data sent from index.jsp and forwards the result to the specific view. Before the execute() method of clientAction class is executed,all input properti es of the Action class are populated with the input parameters having the same name. Eg: setName is used to set the name properties of Action class.

8)Inside the execute() method of ClientAction class returns success value then c lient page is displayed.
