No, and I'm not familiar with why or how this works in JS. Makes as much sense as binding a JSP to a Servlet.

Yes. Set your List as a parameter and retrieve if in the JSP. 


  | class:
  | request.setAttribute("somelist", someList);
  | 
  | jsp:
  | List blah = (List) request.getAttribute("somelist");

You can't. All actionUrls post to the processAction, and from there you call your specific method.

You mention "Action Class" a lot. Not sure if you mean the actual portlet class, or some other thing thats JS specific.
