This one came up earlier this month. Nothing to do
with <html:select> per se. A large number of tags on a page can
cause this.
Check the archive at http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/
Search struts-user for the topic "Illegal target of branch or
jump"
The last post on that topic says that the cure is
to give yourself more heap in the JVM with -mx and -ms
(I wonder if its really more stack
space per thread that on needs for a large number of tags on a JSP
(??). I haven't looked into it, but stack(s) are usually more fragile
than heap in multi-threaded system.)
