Hi,
First, thanks for your help Bill. I finally got what I was trying to do by:
1- In the action I store the form name using> request.setAttribute("formName",
mapping.getName());
2- In the jsp I retrieve the form object using> <c:set var="form"
value="${sessionScope[formName]}" />

Try this:
<c:set var="form"
value="${requestScope['org.apache.struts.action.mapping.instance.name']}"
/>
