Mike, If I understand you correctly, you want to retain the value when the form is submitted. One option is to use <bean:message> to display the value and use <html:hidden> to retain the value for form submission.
<html:form ...> Prop1: <bean:message name="myForm" property="prop1"/> <html:hidden name="myForm" property="prop1"/> ... </html:form> The value is *not* retained in a bean. It's just resubmitted as an URI parameter. If you let Struts do the auto formbean population, you will get it in the actionform object. Bean created by <bean:define> in the request scope will "disappear" because whenever you submit the form, that's a complete new request.
