Stephane,
it's not exactly clear what you are trying to achieve or what the 
problem is (apart from ugly code).

Why do you have to fill the id field manually in the JSP via EL? It 
should be automatic from the form bean. Perhaps you haven't linked up 
the formbean and the action mapping in struts-config properly.

Also, what is the html:img 'select' dispatch? Does this somehow display 
the image on the page? It looks recursive / infinite loop-like.
