I'm trying to use DOJO 1.0.2 tree with Struts 2.0.11. I do not want to use the Tree Tag provided by the Struts 2.x frame work. I'm not able to do this as the DOJO 1.0.x tree builds the tree from a datastore, but in my case I want the forest ( tree without a root node) with first level nodes to be created from the struts action when page is loaded and then on expansion of first level node, I want to read data from the same action based on the Id of the first level node. Please help.
