At the risk of shameless self-promotion, I've got a chapter on Struts in my new book, "MySQL and JSP Web Applications". It's by no means a complete reference on the subject, but it does walk through the entire process of setting up a moderately complex multi-form Struts application. For the full-blown reference, you'll have to wait until 1Q of 2003, since I and a co-author just signed with SAMS to write just such a book for release about then.
