Make sure that in your Meny.jsp file, you have declared the "bean" taglib at the top of the document. That's the mistake I made.

I'll start by saying that i'm new to struts so I might have missed something very simple. I have a problem when using the "bean:include" tag I have a global forward in my strut-config file like this: <forward name="test1" path="/test.do"/> <!-- --> <action path="/test" type="se.hejaleksand.TestIncludeAction" scope="request" input="/Meny.jsp" validate="false"> <forward name="success" path="/Meny.jsp"/> </action> The action doesn't do anything more than forward to "success", I have put a breakpoint in my debugger so I know that it reaches the action. The jsp file that uses the include looks like this: <bean:include id="test" forward="test1"/> <bean:write name="test" filter="html"/> In the Meny.jsp I try to use the "bean:write" tag like this: <bean:write name="user" property="name" scope="session"/> the result of this is empty, the rest of the page, plain html, is showing like it should. It seems like the session and its attributes cannot be retrieved in the included jsp-file. The same line of code works fine in the file that does the include. If I try with plain old jsp (which I'm also new at) like this: <% User user = (User) session.getAttribute("user"); out.print(user.getName()); %> it works and I get the name of my user. One more thing the <bean:message key="welcome.title"/> in the Meny.jsp doesn't work either. Can anybody explain why the Struts tag doesn't work, or doesn't work like I thought it would anyway? Thanks in advance for any help!! Regards, Calle! PS If this is explained somewhere else already please tell me where, I have searched the web but found nothing. _______________________________________________ MVC-Programmers mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.basebeans.com:8081/mailman/listinfo/mvc-programmers _______________________________________________ MVC-Programmers mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.basebeans.com:8081/mailman/listinfo/mvc-programmers
