The document discusses different types of Struts action forms including standard action forms, Dyna action forms, and map/list backed action forms that can be dynamically modified. It provides examples of how to implement a map backed action form to dynamically populate and edit form fields from a session attribute. The document also describes a mini application that uses these techniques to display and edit an address form.
