Thanks for the help
Could get what i wanted by using the s:set tag. Code snippet below
----------------------
<s:iterator value="allBranches" status="stat">
<div style="display:none"><s:set name="brname"><s:property/></s:set></div>
<s:if test="%{#brname=='START'}">
<table class="gridTable" id='<s:property/>'><tr>
</s:if>
<s:elseif test="%{#brname=='END'}">
</table></tr>
</s:elseif>
<s:else>
<th width="65"><s:property/></th>
<td><s:textfield id="" name="%{#brname}" size="4"
value=""></s:textfield></td>
</s:else>
</s:iterator>
