Thanks, Thiago. For option 3:
I can get the value from the select using Javascript, but how do I add it to
the link URL? The ActionLink's URL is built through Tapestry,
Tapestry.init({"zone":["myZone"],"linkZone":[["showMyStuffLink","myZone","/my-web/stuff/create.showmystufflink"]]});
This javascript is added to the page by Tapestry and how can modify it to
include select field value?
"/my-web/stuff/create.showmystufflink/" + getSelectFieldValue()

It does not find because there was no context in your ActionLink.

HTML <a> tags don't submit form values. If you want them, you need to submit
the form.
You have some options:
1) Instead of using an ActionLink or EventLink, use the LinkSubmit component.
Unfortunately, it doesn't have a Zone parameter.
2) Instead of using an ActionLink or EventLink, use a <input type="submit"> tag
or the Submit component.
3) Use an ActionLink or EventLink, but make sure the value from <select> is
added to the link URL through Javascript.
