Well, you can't "nest" tags the way your first example shows - it's invalid XML, I believe. Your second example should work, but I have to question what you're calling "function" and "functionName". The name attribute should be the name of a bean - in request scope (since you've stated that's where it is) - and property should only be the name of the property you wish to retrieve the value of -- not the name of the accessor.
Ex: class Foo - has attribue bar (and accessors getBar() and setBar(String bar)) - instance in request is foo: <bean:write name="foo" property="bar" scope="request"/> If that doesn't help, maybe you could give a broader overview of what you're trying to actually do :-) My guess is that you want to specify default values for a form. There are a couple of other ways you can do that: - use a Dyna*Form and specify the initial (probably String) value - preface the call to the page with an action that will populate the form and then forward to your JSP Repost if that doesn't help - explain your scenario a little better though, please :-) Kalaiselvan wrote: >Hii > ><html:text property="functionName" size="15" value="<bean:write name="function" >scope="request" property="functionName"/>" >/> >Its not working.
