I have a solution, but it's not pretty. What I ended up having to do is set a hidden attribute with the same name as my check boxes and set it's value to -1 as below.
<s:hidden name="user.roleIds" value="-1"/> And then in my service layer screen out any roleIds equal to -1. As I said not pretty. I'd appreciate a better option. Z. > Sorry my response was too quick.
