What is a puzzle is why is the setter method in the the DynaActionForm being passed 'webdav.url' as the property name parameter, but 'null' as the value name parameter?

Since you are using an EL construct in the value attribute of the <html:text .../>, you will need to import the Struts html-el tag library so that the tag "knows" how to extract information from the scoped attribute.

Hi All,
I'm having some problems with nested properties in Strust. Struts seems to loose property values when specifying nested bean properties in an action form. For example, the following fragment is an example of attempting to set a value in a view JSP:
<html:text property="webdav.url" value="${config.webdav.url}"/>
When Struts attempts to set the webdav.url nested bean property for, example, a DynaActionForm the value is passed as null to the action form setter method.
In the documentation it clearly states that "the property attribute for the Struts-HTML tags accept simple, nested, and indexed expressions":
http://struts.apache.org/api/org/apache/struts/taglib/html/package-summary.html#package_description
I checked and the property setter method for the DynaActionForm in the example I cited is being called and the 'webdav.url' string is being passed as the property name but the property value passed is 'null' despite the fact that I have entered a value. When I switch to using standard, non-nested property name values in the html:text tag the values are set correctly.
Is this proper behaviour for Struts or is it some kind of bug?
Kind regards...
