Hi James, the code You have shown is generating java script on server side, and then on browser side you run it in browser. For example You can't do this: var myList = '<s:property value="zipCodes"/>'; myList.toUpperCase(); and expect that on server side inside action, zipCodes variable is updated with new uppereCased value.
Also there is nothing bad in generating js on server side, i do it all the time. It's just worth knowing that server != browser in terms of execution space.
