Want to have a bean separate from the action and just reference it?
Define your bean (whatever you want) and just declare it as a variable
on your action.
Nothing more.
Add getter and setter.

class MyAction ... {
 private MyBeanClass myBean;

}

in your JSP just prefix bean components with the bean name;

<s:textfield name="myBean.title" ... />

That's all :)
