Fixed.
It needs to use the ${ } notation in c:set like shown below:
<c:if test="${empty formBean.event.date}">
<c:set target="${formBean.event}" property="date" value="10/7/2004"/>
</c:if>
Thanks to everybody for their help.

I tried the following:
<c:if test="${empty formBean.event.date}">
<c:set target="formBean" property="event.date" value="10/7/2004"/>
</c:if>
and got this exception:
[ServletException in:/jsp/registration/register.jsp] Invalid property in
<set>: "event.date"' javax.servlet.jsp.JspTagException: Invalid property in
<set>: "event.date" at
org.apache.taglibs.standard.tag.common.core.SetSupport.doEndTag(SetSupport.j
ava:183) at
I have no idea why, because formBean does have a getEvent() method, and
event does have a setDate(String) method. I can be sure because Struts
handles it correctly.
Any idea what I'm doing wrong?? I know it's finding the formBean because
the "if" test works if I comment out the c:set line.
Thanks!!

Try JSTL:
<c:if test="${empty formBean.event.date}">
<c:set target="formBean" property="event.date" value="1/1/2004"/>
</c:if>
Note: this code has not been tested....
