Hi Martin, Thanks for replying. I loked at I am iterating through the collection to display some the items as follows:
<s:iterator value="actionItems"> <tr> <td><s:property value = "status" /></td> <td><s:select name="action" headerKey="" headerValue="Change Status" list="statuses" /> </td> <td> <s:hidden name="id" /> <s:submit name="update" value = "Change"/> </td> </tr> </s:iterator> There is a submit button for every row. I want to update the value of a bean attribute status with the value from the drop down. I have tried to change the invocation from submit to get using <s:action><s:param name ="idValue" value = "id" /></s:action>. But I am not able to get status attribute to be populated in my action class.
