The attribute in org.apache.struts.taglib.html.BEAN is set by the <html:form> tag. This is how the other <html:> tags know which form bean they are dealing with.
I'd be interested to know why the other html tags are made aware of the form bean this way, rather than directly asking their enclosing form tag. Any ideas anyone? The only thing I can think of is that it means that dynamically included pages can still use the html tags to reference the parent page's form.
