If I understand what you want, here is an example of how we do this: Here is the the java action and by using the input form, we can get a connection to the original instance and get thisReportForm. I hope this helps. The InsCommonReportForm is a common bean that our workgroup uses for different jsps. It sounds like you want to do a similar thing. public ActionForward perform( final ActionMapping mapping, final ActionForm form, final HttpServletRequest request, final HttpServletResponse response) throws IOException, ServletException { if( isDebug() ) log( "In perform method - DetailedDependent21ReportAction" ); // Create Struts application errors object final ActionErrors errors = new ActionErrors(); RequestResult result = null; ActionForward forwardURL = null; final InsCommonReportForm thisReportForm = (InsCommonReportForm)form;
Now use thisReportForm.methods/attributes names and go.

I have a separate action mapped in my struts-config that is run from a different page that uses the same bean name. however, it seems to create a new instance of the bean. If i'm using the same bean name, is a new instance created for each action that i have mapped (that uses the same action class) or is it supposed to reuse that same instance? I'm not sure if I've been been clear enough about what I'm trying to say, but hopefully it's understandable.
