I wonder why HTML needs CTRL key when we enable multiple! Anyway, I think it's
out of Struts business as an HTML issue. Unfortunately Struts Select tag
doesn't provide an optional fix for this HTML issue and you've to fix it
manually via some javascript coding e.g. save current selected items on each
click and reselect all of them on each click too.
Regards.
