First, remove anything from your hands coz you're going to have a doh moment. :)
Second, follow along the number :)
> index.jsp
> <html:link page="/articleForm.do">Article</html:link>
1)So the user clicks the link, Sending them to the articleForm action,
>
> my struts-config.xml
> <action path="/articleForm" forward="/articles/Template.jsp" />
2) This sends them to the Template.jsp page
>
> <action
> path="/PreviewArticle"
> type="articles.ArticlePreviewAction"
> name="articleForm"
> scope="request"
> validate="false"
> input="/articles/Template.jsp">
> <forward name="success" path="/articles/Preview.jsp"/>
> <forward name="failure" path="/articles/Template.jsp"/>
> </action>

> Template.jsp
3) Which can't find the dbCategories because /PreviewArtilce is only called
AFTER you submit the form, not before.

> <html:select name="articleForm" property="category">

> </html:select>
> ...
> ...
> </html:form>
>
> My ArticlePreviewAction.java
> dbCategories = dbBean.getCategoriesForArticle(myConnection);
> request.setAttribute("dbCategories", dbCategories);
