jsp is not displayed when using iframe

Question

I am using the iframe and created four frames in homePage.jsp like this...

<body>
        <iframe name="headerContent" src="pages/header.jsp"  class="headerStyle" scrolling=no frameborder=0 marginwidth=0 marginheight=0></iframe>
        <iframe name="menuContent"   src="pages/menu.jsp"    class="menuStyle" scrolling=no frameborder=0 marginwidth=0 marginheight=0></iframe>
        <iframe name="menuContent2"  src="pages/content.jsp" class="contentStyle" scrolling=no frameborder=0 marginwidth=0 marginheight=0></iframe>
        <iframe name="footerContent" src="pages/footer.jsp"  class="footerStyle" scrolling=no frameborder=0 marginwidth=0 marginheight=0></iframe>
</body>

and have a menu.jsp which contains 4 links and when i click on one link and in href tag i am calling the action(which is defined in struts.xml) and this action is calling a class which is returning some data and on the SUCCESS it is forwarding to a CUSTOMERMAIN.jsp file but beacuse of iframe it is not displaying any jsp file.

If i don't use the iframe ..it is working fine and displaying the jsps properly....

Your iframes should call Action classes, not JSP directly, because that's how an MVC framework, and Struts2 in particular, works;
You are reinventing the wheel, what you are trying to do is an ugly version of TILES.
