hi pple
am a struts-beginner and i need some help on passing an Arraylist frm Action to
JSP.

in the execute ( ) of SetUpMessageAction, i have:

String description. in service.getCategories ( ), i do
repeatedly to populate the Arraylist.
from Action, request is fwd-ed to ContactPage.jsp, where I need to get the 'categories' collection to populate my combo box.
this is how i try to populate the combo box:
in my struts-config.xml, this is wht i have:
the exception i get is:
what does that mean? am i not setting 'categories' explicitly in Action? what am i missing here?
i had another question:
What exactly does this do?
thanks a ton.
