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.

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.

Did that help?
