What you want are called indexed properties in struts. Start here: http://jakarta.apache.org/struts/faqs/indexedprops.html and here: http://www.developer.com/java/ejb/article.php/2233591
Then search the list archives for any specific questions you have, many have been answered. Also, if you are having n number of elements, make sure your form goes into the session scope instead of the request scope. This is probably the biggest issue with indexed properties I have seen.
