New to STRUTS and HIBERNATE

Last Month i got an opportunity thru my roommate Gopi to do a project. His requirement is to apply leave thru online. So i used this opportunity to learn Struts and Hibernate. He gave me a short time span ( April 1st 2007 is the deadline). So i started coding without reading any documents related to Struts and Hibernate as i have planned to read the documents whenever i get the doubts.

Here i would like to share what i have learned so far in struts and hibernate. Keep in mind that i am new to struts and hibernate. If you find anything wrong please let me know thru comments to update myself.
