ah ok, have to change the test jsp statement around:

 <s:if test='select == "0" '> or <s:if test="select == \"0\"">

did try and to use <s:if test="select == "0" ">, <s:if test="select == '
"0" ' "> etc, but does not compile the jsp.

...Would have thought .equals(..) would be the correct way to evaluate a
string?
<s:if test="select.equals(\"0\")"> or <s:if test="select.equals('0')"> or
<s:if test='select.equals("0")'>

That's why it's a dumb question :-)

Thanks!
