Hi Nathan,

THanks alot for the Info!! However, I have searched through a couple of the nightly 
builds ( from 22nd August to 04 September ) in the binaries and src' but none of these 
have the Textarea Tag implementation you have in the TextareaTag file you sent as 
attachment. Do you know which build contains the Textarea tag impl'. 
I noticed that someone has added the prepareIndex method in the BaseHandlertag so I 
tried using that setup, but I get alot of problems with the builr jar file (from 
Aug-22-2001) since some classes have changed locations (i.e Digester, etc. even though 
I place the latest struts.jar, commons*.jar files in my classpath and the WEB-INF/lib 
directories)

Anyway, I tried simply adding your Textareatag file attachment to my old src files (I 
used to build the latest stable release which works for indexed Text Tags) and 
rebuilding with jakarta-ant but get the following error message (below).I have checked 
and found out that the TextareaTag extends BaseInputTag abstract class which extends 
BaseHandlerTag class that contains the indexed protected variable. Now since 
TextareaTag is a descendant of BaseHandlerTag, I would expect the compiler to figure 
this out. Do you know the probable cause of this? Please help.

Your help is highly appreciated.
