I see your point, but aren't you incurring unnecessary formatting overhead in the presentation tier (to say nothing of ongoing maintenance)? Any Struts tag that writes to the presentation tier should take such formatting issues into consideration. For example, the formatting tag that Chandras suggests (or using java.text.NumberFormat in the action) look like good solutions.
