The Struts form tags don't handle formatting or i18n.  That's up to the
Action object (or maybe ActionForm, depending on how you write your app).  I
believe there are locale-aware BeanUtils converters, though I haven't used
them myself.  
You might wanna take a look at FormDef (http://www.rabago.net/struts/formdef
and http://formdef.dev.java.net).  There's a sample app that does what I
think you're trying to do, which allows the user to use forms that contain
data formatted to the locale being used.
