The text field is also correctly populated based on the values in the hashmap (populated from database before showing the form). So the filed is correctly linked to the hashmap.
I have even tried using an alphabet as a separator but that doesn't work either. But if I remove the hyphen (2241923545 as key) then the hashmap is populated, but I wouldn't be able to get the two values separated out if there is no separated. I could multiply one number with million and add another number to come up with a single number, but it will eventually create a problem as these keys grow. If there a setting for struts that need to be changed to allow non numeric keys?
