Just to give you a little more info. I have three entity beans that I am using: purchase order, lineItem and address. The address is for both shipping and billing.

The other two are standard Java classes, just make sure they implement Serializable. You can just refer to these in your main form in the following way
LineItem ArrayList shippingList then in your Shipping java object just have Shipping ArrayList billingList The code is simple to loop through and display these and it simply involves sticking nested:iterate tags in your JSP to loop through the fields within the other objects. Hope that starts you off, you don't actually need to piss about with the struts-config.xml file at all apart from declaring your initial actionform there, hope that helps you out.

In order to do this I have created a form in the struts-config.xml. My question is on how to nest forms. I have the main form, then a lineItem form with item info (there may be mulitiple line Items), then two address forms: shipping and billing. How do I create the overall form in the .xml file? I am using ejb's for the database calls. > > > > --------------------------------- > Do you Yahoo!? > Yahoo! Mail Plus - Powerful. Affordable.
