/**
 * An Action that includes the context-relative
 * URI specified by the parameter property of our associated
 * ActionMapping.  This can be used to integrate Struts with
 * other business logic components that are implemented as servlets (or JSP
 * pages), but still take advantage of the Struts controller servlet's
 * functionality (such as processing of form beans).
 *
 * To configure the use of this Action in your
 * struts-config.xml file, create an entry like this:
 *
 * 
 *   <action path="/saveSubscription"
 *           type="org.apache.struts.actions.IncludeAction"
 *           name="subscriptionForm"
 *          scope="request"
 *          input="/subscription.jsp"
 *      parameter="/path/to/processing/servlet">
 * 
 *
 * which will include the context-relative URI specified by the
 * parameter attribute.
