will work iff, static calls are enabled for OGNL, and "p" is a field of the object on top of the stack, which I doubt, it should be something like: <s:set name="DynamicCodeType" value="@com.whatever.myactioncl...@getcodetype(#p.myInteger)'"/> assuming that "p" is in the stack pointing to your person object. musachy On Wed, Jan 28, 2009 at 11:49 AM, Ralf Fischer <thema...@googlemail.com> wrote: > On Wed, Jan 28, 2009 at 5:09 PM, Ryan Peterson <rrpeter...@gmail.com> wrote: >> p is a custom object, say person.
