the list attribute defined is the variable bound from the action as seen here
with a bound Collection variable called availableItems
<s:select list="#skillAction.availableItems" listKey="name" label="Main
Skill"
name="currentEmployee.mainSkill.name"/>
public abstract class AbstractCRUDAction extends ActionSupport {
private Collection availableItems;
the hidden field needs a value attribute and a id attribute as seen here:
<s:hidden id="project-name" name="project-name" value="Struts 2" />
