Accessing Form properties from JSP

Thread view:

Hi,

I need to access some Struts Form properties (data) from the JSP page
in order to populate it from the scriplet.
Is there a way to do it ?

TIA,
Oleg.
P.S.: using Struts 1.3.

Using scriptlet in JSP is completely contrary to the point of using Struts.

The whole point of Struts is to separate the Model from the View from the
Controller.

You will defeat the Struts ActionForm doing what you propose.

The usual approach is to populate the ActionForm prior to the display of the
JSP. This will automagically populate your screen.
