Rob,
here's an message I sent a few days ago. It relies on Javascript which isn't
optimal... but it does the job.

Why don't you separate the value displayed from the action sent using a
Javascript method:
<script language="javascript">
function submitWithAction(action) {
document.yourFormName.action.value=action;
}
</script>
<input type="hidden" name="action"> (this can be generated with
<html:hidden>)
<html:submit Onclick="submitWithAction('Create');">
<bean:message key="create" />
</html:submit>
<html:submit Onclick="submitWithAction('Search');">
<bean:message key="search" />
</html:submit>
Your buttons will be multi-language and the value of your hidden "action"
parameter will be a constant that you can reuse (and that is not tied to a
language).
Just my 2 cents...

That would work but what if the text on the button was multilingual, ie
could be any one of 100 languages depending on user locale setting, which
is what I have to support!

Rob,
Assuming your FormBean has a getter/setter for "action":
<td height="22" align="right">
<html:submit property="action" value="Submit"/>
</td>
<td height="22">
<html:submit property="action" value="Close"/>
</td>
Within the action, you could then assign the forward based on the value of
'action'
MyFormBean form1 = (MyFormBean) form;
String sAction = form1.getAction();
if (sAction.equals("Submit"))
....
