Looking again at the post from: http://www.nabble.com/-S2--s:action-in-value-stack--td21551483.html
I see that the answer is <s:action namespace="/mynamespace" name="actionTwo" id="myActionTwo" /> <s:property value="#myActionTwo.myActionTwoProperty" /> I didn't understand the significance of the '#' symbol which I assume means to reference by id or var. Anyway, the above works so I am happy. doahh wrote: > > I have been playing with the s:action tag and have found it impossible to > reference any property of the action in a struts2 like way.
