You really should be populating the form from within an action before you get to the JSP.
But if you must, custom tags aside, this might work: <% ActionForm form = (ActionForm)pageContext.getAttribute(formBeanName); BeanUtils.copyProperties(databean,form); pageContext.setAttribute(formBeanName,form); %> Do rendering here -----Original Message----- From: news [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of Peter Klassen Sent: Tuesday, November 11, 2003 8:07 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: init form on page Hi u all, would like to init a ActionForm on the Top of my JSP-Page with an given Data-Bean.
