There is no arraylist control in HTML. You just need to use the regular, everyday controls.

What good is a hidden arraylist in a form?

Are you trying to send a list of string values in a single hidden variable? If so, consider concatenating the values together with comma separators - the jsp/servlet side will get a single long string you can take apart into the individual values.
