By implementing the interfaces I will have access to Request and session
objects in action class alone or also in the jsp's and that too in struts2
tags only and not using scriptlets? 

To make it more clear will 
<s:property value="#request['abc']"/>  print "xyz" if the url for the page
was *.action?abc=xyz
Is the syntax that I used correct for accessing the request parameter called
"abc" with value "xyz". 
I am trying to do something like this but not able to succeed.

Will implementing RequestAware interface in the action class make the above
work and xyz be printed??
Also see if you can help me out with the last two issues that I mentioned in
the first post.
