You can only define the multibox tag within the form tag. I think the
multibox tag will check for an indexed property within the form bean
corresponding to the name defined for the checkoxes and render each one of
them as checked or unchecked accordingly.

An example is shown below

<html:form action="validateEmployee.do">
        <logic:iterate id="currentSkill" name="skillsList">
                <html:multibox property="skills">
                        <%= currentSkill %>
                </html:multibox>
                <%= currentSkill %>
                <br/>
        </logic:iterate>
<html:form action="validateEmployee.do">

In the example above the body content of the multibox tag is used to define
the value attribute of each check box. The name of all the checkboxes will
be skills. The state of each checkbox is computed by checking the indexed
property skills defined in the action form bean. You can also use the
multibox tag without relying on the body content.

Hi!

Now my question is, how do I get the aid from the Form into the
checkbox?
