Er well actually Jeromy according to http://struts.apache.org/2.0.9/docs/url.html the default value for url tag includeParams is 'get' which I presume means that all params on a GET the request are included but not those from a form POST ... If the default was false (or none to be syntatically correct) then that would make more sense to me. This may have changed in earlier or later versions. Frankly I don't have time to spend all day reading about different versions of Struts2 when I have paying work to do.

Really, I long for the days of Servlets and custom tags and all that other cool stuff I used to get lost in ... then it was 5:00 pm (or later) and time to go home. Now I sit here struggling with someone else's idea of what I need. > As for the list of Integers, ...snip Well actually some of the Struts2 stuff is quite nice, the auto conversion stuff is good, that saves time and some other bits are nice. I like the <s:property> thing and the ValueStack is good (most of the time). I fact I have implemented my own version of <s:property> to get properties from (possibly unavailable) role type plugins and it makes the jsp code so much cleaner. Anyway, I'm a bit wiser now. Instead of assuming I need to tell the tags what I want them to do I now assume I have to tell them what I don't want them to do ...which is a bit of a paradigm shift really.
