Oh, you know what, my bad... I'm on vacation this week and my brain is shut down even more than some would say it normally is... you asked about Struts2, and I answered for Struts1. Sorry about that, ignore what I said.

For S2, let's say you have a String property "name" on your HelloWorldAction class, you can use:

<s:property value="name"/>

...in your JSP to display it.  You'll also need:

<[EMAIL PROTECTED] prefix="s" uri="/struts-tags" %>

...to make that work. And of course, make sure you have an appropriate getter method on the Action too.

So if I have "helloworld.action" defined as:

<action name="helloworld" class="test.struts.HelloWorldAction">
<result>/WEB-INF/jsp/helloworld.jsp</result>
</action> 

Then I can retrieve the object with:

MyActionForm form = (MyActionForm)request.getAttribute("helloworld");

??

You can find the form as a request attribute with the same name you used

in your config file, so:

MyActionForm form = (MyActionForm)request.getAttribute("myFormName");

Newbie question here.  Suppose I have action, "helloworld.action"
which
I use to grab a bunch of data I wish to display on a JSP page.  My
question is how do get a reference to that action object in the JSP
page?  The tutorials on the Struts2 website showed examples using
<form
/> tags, but I don't need to use <form /> tags.  I just want to
display
data.
