Oh, that's much nicer! Yes, using the "action" built-in variable works
perfectly. Thank you very much -

can you try "${action.someMethod()} ? I think that should work

Thanks! I don't know what that's really doing, but it does work. Adding
parameters to the methods is a bit wonky; it's very difficult to get the
syntax right for
${stack.findValue("getScore('${st.name()}')")}
as opposed to the expected
${getScore(st.name())}
but it's something.
Maybe this should be added to
http://struts.apache.org/2.x/docs/freemarker.html , assuming it's the
intended behavior? The question's been asked of the list at least a couple
other times this year: http://markmail.org/message/4ordiw724kvdw5d6 and
http://markmail.org/message/jjkic23knjk5tnpx.
Best,

Try:
${stack.findValue("getMyValue()")}
${stack.findValue("myMethod()")}
