Hi All:>

I am trying to use an interceptor to manage control> over a section of screens. The idea is for a user to> step through a test with a status key as the> placeholder. Once the test is completed then the> status holder will be evaluated to not allow a user> to> get back into the test. One other caveat would be> for> a user who must log back into the test then the> status> key will allow them to directly go back to the> section> they last completed when they start again. >

Here is the interceptor that I have been trying to> get> to work properly - >

package org.appfuse.webapp.­action;>

The wiring up within action-servlet.xml is pretty> basic as well - >

<bean id="testUrlMapping"­>

<bean id="testStatusInter­ceptor">

So, any suggestions?>
