Yes that works! Thanks. It does open the questions:
1) Why is it necessary? I have dozens of Struts applications and this is the first time this has been needed. 2) Why can't you specify the bean to use in the html:form tag? I tried adding the undocumented features name="MappingElement" type="com.alarius.datasource.forms.MappingElement" with no effect. Michael Oliver CTO Alarius Systems LLC 6800 E.
