I am not quite sure if this question is suitable for this mailing list.  If
not, please forgive me.

So here is my question.  How can I capture the original query string or make
the query string in web.xml dynamic?
in general I would not recommend to set the string in the web.xml.
first part of your question: you can read out any parameter of a post or 
get string by request.getParameter(String parametername);
second part: there are multiple ways to manipulate the request 
parameters: java -> request.setAttribute(String attributename, String 
value); or by hidden fields in html forms or with select-fields which 
are submitted . . .

I would suggest:

read out the site the user is coming from with

String mysite = request.getParameter("site");

(of course you have to add this to the string somewhere on the original 
page)

write it to newly generated links:

out.println("passwordsubmitter.jsp?site=" + mysite);

or sth like this . . .

I am also looking for mailing lists for the following:
   Struts Questions
there's one on the apache.org site I think -> struts  . . .

   General Java Questions
   J2EE Questions
no mailing but extremely cool & helpful people there and also mailing 
mechanisms to keep track of your threads:
http://forums.java.sun.com/

If anyone can point me in the right direction, it would be greatly
appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
 

Have fun,

Henning
