I assume you want to put a checkbox where you have the
<INPUT TYPE=CHECKBOX NAME="maillist">
tag? You need to place that inside of a set of table data tags:

<table border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="1" align="center">
    <tr class="tblcaption">
        <td>
            <input type="checkbox" name ="maillist" />
        </td>
     . . .

In your code sample, the input tag is between table row tags, but not inside a table data tag. I'm not sure what the (X)HTML specifications say to do (if anything since it is technically incorrect markup), but most browsers will render anything placed between <table> tags, but not inside of <td> (table data) or <th> (table header) tags before the table. Some browser may even ignore such erroneous entities.

how to state that with html tag in struts?

[Mark Vedder]

<html:form action="someAction">
    <table>
        <tr>
            <td>
                <html:checkbox property="foo" />
            </td>
            <td>
                some content
            </td>
        </tr>
    </table>
</html:form>

That would render an input tag of:

<input type=�checkbox� name=�foo� value=�on�>

The property attribute is the only required attribute for the <html:checkbox> tag. You can look at the what the various other attributes are and what they are used for in the documentation available at: http://struts.apache.org/userGuide/struts-html.html#checkbox
