Hi Faraz, I am not using a converter but getting just the ids for the selected entries.
In my action class I have a variable - private String selectedIds; and the corresponding getter/setter. In JSP the select tag entry looks like - <s:select theme = "simple" name = " selectedIds " multiple="true" size="10" cssStyle="width : 250px" list="allvalues" listKey="id" listValue="name" /> When you select the multiple values in the select box and submit the form, variable selectedIds will hold the selected ids as "1,2,14,15". After obtaining these values, you can process them further as per your business logic.
