Forms with dynamically generated fields
I have a JSP that generates a form based. The JSP creates a set of input
fields on fly based on some prior information that the user entered.
Therefore the number of fields for that form will differ from user to user.
What is the best approach in Struts for dealing with this. Obviously, I
can't simply define a DynaActionForm in the struts-config file, for there
won't be a fixed number of fields.

I take it, however, that there's no way of doing this simply through
DynaActionForm?

You can always use mapped properties though.
public String getSomeProperty(String parameter);
public void setSomeProperty(String parameter, String value);
<html:text property="someProperty(yourKeyGoesHere)"/> <!-- note the ()s -->
You might extract your keys from your form and loop over them with a c:forEach or a logic:iterate.
