That's just what I was looking for, thanks Dave. I was looking for a way to do it with <s:xxx/> tags, so I'm now more confident it's best done without them as opposed to thinking I might have missed something.
Thanks again, Al. -----Original Message----- From: Dave Newton [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 16 May 2007 17:02 To: Struts Users Mailing List Subject: Re: [Fwd: Best method for dynamic fields round trip] S2? Build an array or map of the form fields and provide an appropriate setter in the action. Probably easiest to build the form tags by hand (i.e., non <s:xxx.../> tags). So you'd iterate over the dynamic fields, create the tags. On submit you'd end up with a list (or map, or whatever) of the values.
