Hi, I'm building an application, which uses database as a source for configuration data. For example I have a page which enables users to customize their personal UI schema, like which columns they want to see in search result.
Now that means, that I have to build dynamic html forms and use mapped properties to populate action forms. Also property attributes in form tags (like <html:text property="...") need to be set dynamically with values taken from db. I tried to do it like that: <% String key = "this is taken from database" %> <html:text property="property(<%=key%>)"/> but that doesn't work. I guess I don't have to mention, that using another jsp tag instead of <%=key%> doesn't work either. It just appears in html output as ordinary text - it's not parsed while converting .jsp to .java. I noticed, that these are the brackets that cause this malfunction. If I write: <html:text property="<%=key%>"/> everything works fine. -- Best regards, Maciej -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> For additional commands, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
