May be this can help you to start:

<c:forEach items="${customer.iscutomer}">
<div>
<i>${customer.customerNumber}. </i>
    <li>
        <s:a name="foo" namespace="bar">
              <s:param name="customerName">${customer.customerName}</s:param>
              <s:param name="customerNubmber">${customer.customerNumber}</s:param>
     </s:a>
    </li>
</div>

Please consider I find that the s:a url does not add parameters to link. Now your generated link will be /foo/bar/action?customerName=joe&customerNumber=1

No in your JS you can have:

$('a').bind('click',function(){
    var url = ($(this).attr('href'));
    var customerName= getURLParameter(url, 'customerName');
    var customerNumber= getURLParameter(url, 'customerNumber');
    //calling the ajax function
    pop(cat, typ)
});

If you want to have ajax calls please have a look at struts 2 jquery plugin.
