it possible to not click any url but
still set a setter
If you don't need any user interraction why not do it in the action? It is not

would be the point of a view that without any user input then proceeds to do
further logic...

...maybe pushing the envelope but is it possible to not click any url but
still set a setter. just like we call a getter.
<s:property value = "%{stuff}"/>
