You can also use XXXActionSupport classes located in the same package.

Update: Theses classes are build around Struts 1.2 XXXActions. I did not yet check if they work correctly with Struts 1.3.

There are numerous ways to integrate Struts (any version) with Spring. All you need to do is to give your Struts actions access to a Spring application context. You can even "autowire" Struts actions--typically in a superclass--to get Dependency Injection.

I'd also recommend having a look at Spring MVC, however, unless you already have a significant investment in Struts--evaluating it as an MVC framework vs Struts, not just because it's part of Spring.
