Thanks Mike, That is what I said. Its got to work, or why have it. Anyway, the error, (past my tail command by now) was the tag could not find a getter for the coversCheckbox element. And of course it can't, there is none. There needs to be a way to let the html: element know that this is a DynaValidationForm and now a normal bean. At least I would think so.
And yes, I double checked all my syntax before I posted. Even to double check myself, I just created a simple CheckboxBean, put my value from the Dyna into there, and called the new one in the JSP page, and that works. So that tells me I am either missing a step, or it does not work that way. Anyone else?

Wow. I'm stumped. As I said, I don't have firsthand experience with DynaForms... Only thing I can think of is, did you set the input to your JSP correctly in the struts-config? Not to sound overly optimistic, but it's GOT to work. It uses the same functionality on the sending as it does when setting up the JSP, it's not like it's a separate (difficult) problem to solve. Maybe double-check your get() method to make sure it matches your set() as far as return type etc.?
