Hey Meka,
I am not sure if I understand what you are saying, so let me surmise: You
are trying to access an arraylist in a JSP page that has been set by your
action class. If this is what you are trying to do, it you place the array
list in the request scope or session scope as an attribute and then
reference it from the JSP by the attribute name.
in your action, use
request.setAttribute("myList", yourListInstance);
or session.setAttribute("myList", yourListInstance);
Then in your JSP, you could access it by request.myList, session.myList or
from a struts tag using the name "myList". Hope this information helps you
find your solution. (My example is not exact).
Chuck

Hi Mike,
Got your point. Thank You
In that case, how would the view classes be helpful. Because some people
will write View classes (plain java files with get/set - java beans )
Can i set the view class also in the session so that the View JSP can access
it and show the data ?
This situation will be arising when i have a data layer which returns me a
Bussiness Object. So i fill the data from bussiness object to view class and
then pass on to view jsp.
Please correct me if any part of above statement doesnt make sense.
Thank You
Meka Toka
PS: I have read and read 2 books, i am just clearing my doubts.
