hey arron and chris, Good stuff on this nested tag issue. When you say you need struts 1.1 instead of 1.1 b2, are you referring to just grabbing one of the nightly builds or something else. Hook me up brother!!!

I am using Struts 1.1B2. 1.1 is what we need. > I must admit to not totally understanding your explanation of what > property to reference in the nested parent tag Doesn't really matter, but a parent nested tag (root, iterate, nest etc) put the reference to the root bean and the current nested property into the request object. This is so included pages can get a reference to the root bean the the correct nested property by fetching it back out of the request object. > -- I am referencing my > form object (which is, in fact, the parent I want).

You'll need an empty (no properties are set at all) <nested:root> tag in the included page, this will then look to the request object for the bean/property reference. Sorry about the hassle. If you have any trouble, rather than wait for replies from the list to run over the start of the tutorial I wrote about nesting through includes to make a tree structure... http://www.keyboardmonkey.com/pilotlight ...and click on the first link in the "JSP Reursion & TREES" tutorial.
