So, having narrowed this down more since my last post, I've found that
the BeanUtils.setProperty() method is doing a check to see if there is a
nested property that needs to be set. Since we are using image buttons,
the name of the form element becomes GoToStep2.y, which confuses the
util and makes it try a mapped property approach. I noticed an archive
posting from 7/2000 that Craig mentions that it could be a bug and a fix
was going to be in the works (?):

craig and scott are at ApacheCon so you'll probably have to make do with me :)

i'm not a structs expert but i'll do my best.

looking through your class there was only one thing that was obviously wrong:

    public String getUuidx(){
    	return uuidx;
    }
    public void setUuidx(){
    	this.uuidx = uuidx;
    }

this setter is obviously buggy,

i don't know whether this is the cause of the problem but i thought that i might was well point it out.

anyway, i'll carry on with my digging.
