//The action class contains a (dynamically populated) collection such as persons defined here
@Result(name="list", value="listPeople.action", type=ServletRedirectResult.class) public class EditPersonAction extends ActionSupport { ArrayList<Person> persons = new ArrayList() <snip> } //then the jsp makes reference to persons ArrayList from the action class and references specific rows by utilising stat.index by the s:iterator iterator <s:form action="submitPersonInfo" namespace="/conversion" method="post"> <%-- The following is done Dynamically --%> <s:iterator value="new int[3]" status="stat"> <s:textfield label="%{'Person '+#stat.index+' Name'}" name="%{'persons['+#stat.index+'].name'}" /> <s:textfield label="%{'Person '+#stat.index+' Age'}" name="%{'persons['+#stat.index+'].age'}" /> </s:iterator> this would achieve the effect of dynamically populating n number of Person objects does this answer the question?
