hmm... I'll try it myself, but I think doubling the single quotes may do
the trick.
such as ''. I think it has to do with the way the string is parsed.

I'm not sure I know what you mean. If you are talking about creating menus
programatically, yes it is possible. Just instantiate a MenuComponent
object, set it's attributes, add however many more subcomponents, and do a
menuRepository.addMenu(theMenu).
You can get a handle to the MenuRepository as an application scope attribute
using the following class field as the key:
com.fgm.web.menu.MenuRepository.MENU_REPOSITORY_KEY
which is = "com.fgm.web.menu.MENU_REPOSITORY"
Note that the UseMenuDispalyerTag object looks for the repository using this
key.
Then you can just display the menu using the tags.
step by step:
1. Create your menu using com.fgm.web.menu.MenuComponent
2. Get a handle to the menuRepository using
"com.fgm.web.menu.MENU_REPOSITORY"
3. add your menu by: menuComponent.addMenu(theMenu);
4. Display the menus from JSP using the tags
that's it
Let me know if you have any other problems or questions. :)
