Ian, The Struts tags might be assuming the base href = http://localhost:8081. This is very much a possibility if you are using <html:base/> tag as the servlet container interprets urls with respect to its base rather than your web server doc root. Consider using your own tag that generates <base href="http://www.mydomain.com"/>.
Hope that helps.
