Try setting the form scope in your struts-config to request. I believe
by default it is set to session.
When I set the scope to request that is when I get the problem -- see

Subject: form scope
OK, yea it appears from some of the responses that there is some
confusion,
I am doing something that is really simple.
Here is the form from the jsp -- dropdown.jsp:
<html:form action = DropDownAction" name = "dropDownFormBean" type =
"somePath.DropDownFormBean">
<html:select property = "customer">
<html:option value = "custOne"> cust one</html:option>
<html:option value = "custTwo"> cust two</html:option>
</html:select>
<html:submit/>
</html:form>
NOW on this same page I can write a scriptlet that retrieves the form
bean
from the request and outputs the correct value
For customer. (form bean is in request scope/object and properly
populated)
Here is the action-mapping from struts-config.xml
<action path = "/DropDownAction"
type="somePath.DropDownAction"
name"dropDownFormBean"
scope="request"
validate="false" >
<forward name = "success"
path="/dropdown.jsp" /> (the same page the form is on)
</action>
Now when the scope to set to session, and the form is submitted, the
option is correctly set to the last entry.
When the scope is set to request and the form is submitted , the option
is
not set to the last entry.
We come from the land of the ice and snow
With the midnight sun, where the hot springs glow
The hammer of the gods, will drive our ships to new lands
Fight the horde, Sing and cry
Valhalla I am coming
