There is built in data conversion, but you have to create your own data
converter.
Struts could't automaticaly find your State from the id since it knows
nothing a about your persiatance layer. So you will have to look it up in
the converter. For some as simple as the State object you have, you could
post "name~id" as the select value and then parse it in the converter to
populate your Object.
Look up type conversion in the docs for what class to extend an how to
register the converter.
