The html:link tag is designed so that you can do that
without resorting to scriptlets. Try:

paramProperty="FILENAME" paramId="filename"/>

(Though, you may have problems unless the accessor is
named getFilename, per the conventions.)

{soapbox}

Personally, I discourage use of the page form of html:link,
and always use global forwards instead. This way all the
entry points to your application are documented, and
you don't have to expose API features like "action=w"
in the JSP. You can give the action=w forward a logical name,
and use that instead.

In struts-config:



In your JSP:

paramId="filename"/>

In my own applications, the only place I expose the name of
another Action is in the html:form tags (and I'm working
on that;-)

{/soapbox}
