Jay,
You are correct in that the JSP snip was not complete. This is contained in an
iterate tag. I mentioned that after the code snip.
Multiple forms do work in struts. I have sample code that shows it. Sometimes while
debugging a problem its easier to look at working code and see what they do
differently.
Thanks for your response, code snip below:

bgColor = SLATE;
} else {
bgColor = WHITE;
}
%>

Maybe this code snippet is not complete, but there is only one FORM on this
page. Everything between <html:form> and </html:form> is a single form.
There may be multiple <html:submit> tags, but there is only one FORM.
I don't believe struts will work with multiple-forms, but I'm not sure.
Multiple submit buttons is no problem.
