Disabled text fields are not posted to the server per the HTTP spec so Struts can't see it as a parmeter. You'll either have to use a hidden field or put the value in session scope.

I can get the correct property value from ActionForm when my text field is editable in editForm.jsp , like <html:text property="departmentId" size="3"/> However, if I change it to be uneditable, like <html:text property="departmentId" disabled="true" size="3"/> or <bean:write name="departmentForm" property="departmentId"/> Then, I faile to get the departmentId. Thus, I need to use hidden tag to store departmentId, like <html:hidden property="departmentId"/> Then, I need to get departmentId from request instead of from the ActionForm. Is there some other way to handle it?
