You can either use a plain old <input type="checkbox"/> (since you're using the simple theme anyway and the struts internal support won't work without the hidden field). Or you can edit the FreeMarker template in the simple theme. But both of these will kill Struts' ability to inject the proper value into your action for you. (*Chris*)
