Thanks for the input. I got around the issue by changing my jsp to use the
html:optionsCollection tag.
<html:optionsCollection property="months" />
Seems to work now.
Thanks.

I would leave the JSP as you have it, and move the ArrayList creation to a
ContextListener, placing 'months' in application scope. It's not as though
the list of months is going to change, doing all that object creation every
time a page is displayed is not necessary.
If you're going to leave it in the form, try property="months" instead of
collection="months". Check the docs, assuming your <html:select> is
surrounded by an <html:form> tag, it should call getMonths on the form bean.
IIRC, the collection attribute will make it go hunting in
page|request|session|application scope for something with that name.
