Depends what you’re trying to achieve.
As far as frameworks go I would recommend checking out Spring over Struts (Although they can be used together, Spring has an equivalent Spring-MVC).
But Spring might be a bit involved for a Java newbie, even if you do have other language experience. Maybe experiment with JSPs/servlet first and check out Spring once you’re comfortable with them (I recommend Spring in Action for reading material)
… Also, if we’re talking a bit more outside the box (I see someone else mentioned Scala/Lift), another alternative would be Groovy on Grails. This is based on Spring, and owned by SpringSource, but is much more fun/quick to develop with. Plus if your previous experience happens to be with dynamic langs such as Python/Ruby, Groovy would be worth checking out.
