Hi Craig, I'm not looking for printing 'property' value here... say user types 'm' in text field then it should send request to action, action returns list of values starts with 'm', this list will be displayed in the same textfield where user entered character 'm'. I'd like to know, say we have java 'arraylist' which is having list of values starts with 'm' then how to assign this arraylist to textfield where user entered character 'm'... When I tried same thing it is returning entire page(ajax.jsp), my action is having below method public String selectDropDown() { logger.info("Inside AjaxAction selectDropDown: ");
list = new ArrayList<String>(); list.add("one-1"); list.add("two-2"); list.add("three-3"); list.add("four-4"); list.add("five-5"); return "dropdown"; }//End of selectDropDown and in action <action name="giveMeJsonData" class="gov.action.AjaxAction" method="{1}"> <result name="dropdown">/pages/ajax.jsp</result> </action> It should return only list from this method when I call 'selectDropDown' method from ajax page. Can you please let me know, how to do this. Thanks in advance.

As for the action itself, you would make it like any other action and just store what you want to show the user into a variable with the proper getter/setter function so in the jsp you can go: <%@ taglib prefix="s" uri="/struts-tags" %> <s:property value="VARIABLENAMEHERE"/> The JSP would only contain that. I don't have time to create an example so sorry but this should be enough info.
