I assume you're talking about properties files for pulling message texts? WW will walk up the inheritance tree looking for the property if it is not found in one named the same as your class, so if you have a common base class for all of your Actions, you can create a default message file with that name in the same package (my/app/MyBaseAction.properties). > > Second, kind of on the same lines, I noticed there was no way > to see if a property is in a file, so I was wondering why > not?
