I could be wrong but I can't think of anything that would be very convenient.
The only way I could imagine doing it (and I'm not sure it would even work)
would be to invoke a javascript function every time the page loads. You could
add a bean with the data needed by the javascript to the request, from your
action class. NOTE: this would require you to forgo the automatic form
validation and instead trigger validation from your action class. This is the
only way to get the bean I talked about into the request (as a request
attribute that is).
