I think the ParameterAware is for setting values into my Action. I need to get the values from my action, into the HTML form. mitch On 05/11/2011 02:07 PM, Chris Pratt wrote: Not as such, but you can implement the ParameterAware[1] interface and retrieve the from the supplied map. (*Chris

In Struts 2, if my Action class has a variable named "fred" and a getter "getFred()", a will call that getter to retrieve the value from the action. Is there some kind of catch-all or generic method that is called to retrieve the value for a form field if there is no specific getter? For ex
