Struts helps if I re-start the whole application from scratch. It's not a bad fit for what I'm doing, but it seemed to me when I was initially looking at the options that JSTL would be sufficient. It didn't seem sensible to complicate a fairly simple application with all the Struts fiddly bits.

Actually, I'm giving XForms one more shot first. I might just be able to make Chiba fit in with my JSP stuff. Just love punishment.

I'm not sure how Struts is going to help you here. IIRC, you wanted to update a
cached document with values from request parameters, or at least represent the
request parameters as a document, is that right? If so, it seems like the place
to do that sort of thing would be in a Servlet Filter. Depending on what you'd
like to do (update existing DOM, create DOM from parameters, create XML text
from parameters), there are probably a number of different ways to slice it.
