>From the docs for the <html:submit> 'disabled' attribute: "Set to true if this input field should be disabled."
The field in the tag is a boolean, so the value you supply must be convertable to a boolean. The conversion of the string you supply to a boolean is performed in BeanUtils.BooleanConverter, where: true, yes, y, on, 1 are all synonyms false, no, n, off, 0 are all synonyms As long as you pass one of these values (or an expression that evaluates to one of these values), you'll be fine. -- Martin Cooper > -----Original Message----- > From: Jerry Jalenak [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] > Sent: Thursday, September 05, 2002 2:17 PM > To: 'Struts Users Mailing List' > Subject: RE: [BUG] html:submit disabled= requires boolean value? > > > OK.
