My Code is as follows: Struts.xml
<package name="DebtsOwedtoPHAs" namespace="/DebtsOwedtoPHAs" extends="struts-default"> <action name="PHAInformation" class="gov.hud.pih.eiv.web.action.reports.DebtsOwedAction" method="listAll"> <result name="success">/reports/debtsowed/tenants.jsp</result> </action> <action name="DebtAction" class="gov.hud.pih.eiv.web.action.reports.DebtsOwedAction" method="input"> <result name="success" type="redirect-action">PHAInformation</result> <result name="input">/reports/debtsowed/tenantForm.jsp</result> <result name="error">/error.jsp</result> </action> </package> URL code in tenants.jsp <s:url action="DebtAction" method="input" id="url"> <s:param name="fmrTenant.sSN" value="sSN"/> </s:url> <a href="<s:property value="#url"/>">Edit</a> prepare method in Action public void prepare() throws Exception { setDebtsOwedIface((DebtsOwedIfaceDAO) ApplicationInitializer.getApplicationContext().getBean("debtOwedIfaceDAO")); fmrTenants = getDebtsOwedIface().getAllFormerTenants(false); if (fmrTenant!=null && fmrTenant.getSSN()!=null) fmrTenant = getDebtsOwedIface().getFormerTenant(fmrTenant.getSSN()); } input method in Action public String doInput() { return INPUT; } getter and setter for formerTenant in Action public void setFmrTenant(FormerTenants fmrTenant) { this.fmrTenant = fmrTenant; } public FormerTenants getFmrTenant() { return fmrTenant; } The issue is that the URL link in tenants.jsp <s:url action="DebtAction" method="input" id="url"> <s:param name="fmrTenant.sSN" value="sSN"/> </s:url> is not invoking the setFmrTenant method. So inside prepare when I check whether fmrTenant is null or not I always get that it is NULL and hence this line of code is never executed: fmrTenant = getDebtsOwedIface().getFormerTenant(fmrTenant.getSSN()); Below is code for tenantForm.jsp (this is the page that comes up when user clicks Edit) <s:form action="DebtAction" method="save" method="post"> SSN: <s:property value="%{fmrTenant.sSN}"/> <br> First Name: <s:property value="%{fmrTenant.firstName}"/> Last Name: <s:property value="%{fmrTenant.lastName}"/> Middle Initial: <s:property value="%{fmrTenant.middleInitial}"/> Debt Owed: <s:property value="%{fmrTenant.debtOwed}"/> Termination Reason: <s:property value="%{fmrTenant.terminationReason}"/> </s:form> I am only getting property value of fmrTenant.sSN and nothing else. I would appreciate any help!
