What error messages are you trapping? Try escaping the quotation market in the expression.

What I am trying to achieve is when the action servlet is done its job it would forward to a generic JSP page that will show the appropriate message to the user. For example, at the end of the action servlet, // save the message resource key request.setAttribute("status", "status.success"); return (mapping.findForward("message")); And in message.jsp, I tried doing this in hope of display different message depending on what is being set in the status attribute. <bean:message key="<%= request.getAttribute("status") %>" /> The above line won't work. It seems like doing a JSP expression within a tag is not allowed...is there another way or a better way to achieve this? - boon -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> For additional commands, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> For additional commands, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
