Assuming 'action' is the name of a property on your form bean, and that
you have both getAction and setAction defined, that looks reasonable. If
validation passes, do you see the correct value in the 'action' property?

Post the relevant parts of your struts-config.xml and form bean code if
you still need help resolving this.
