Ah yes, this is one of my favourites. Not! This is what I call the "too many
tags" problem, and I have spent many hours fighting it.
Basically, what you are running up against is a limit on the size of a
compiled method in a Java class file. I posted a message outlining a couple
of solutions to this a couple of months ago. Search the archives for
messages with "Illegal target of jump or branch" in the subject.
One important thing that has changed since I posted my message is that
Struts uses a different mechanism to relate form-related tags back to the
form. This means that there are no longer problems with using <jsp:include>
to include partial forms from another page.
Hope this helps.
