Struts does not know that yo want to should map that domainType to your bean. It wil try to map the parameters received from the request to the action. So for each parameter it founds in the request received from the user, it is gonna look in the action for a set<parameterName>.
If I remember correctly, if the parameter name has a dot, it will understand that is a setter in an bean, so if you put a parameter name called "myBean.myValue", it will try to look for a setMyBean, which receives an object that has a setMyValue, and it will try to instantiate the bean and do both sets. But that's not the case in your jsp, since the parameter name is just domainType. But I'm still missing something. From your code I suppouse you want to show the user a list of domains, then he selects one, and then your application load the data, and return to the user with the same jsp, where he can change some values, and press save, who will send the form to the server, and save it in the database, is that right? 2011/3/16 JavaNoobie87 <vivek...@enzentech.com> > No its not present in the action class.
