Don't see anything wrong from what I've seen. So is it silently failing on displaying the firstName? Have you tried debugging it? How about displaying something from WebappUser -- does *that* work? Can you add a simple toString() to your Person class and try :
<nested:root name="userSession"> <nested:write property="person"/> </nested:root> Sri -----Original Message----- From: Seth Milder [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Monday, November 18, 2002 5:40 PM To: Struts Users Mailing List Subject: Re: Newbie: Nested Tag Trouble Sri Sankaran wrote: > You haven't said what is it that is the problem.

This method just does this: public String getFullName(){ return(_person.getFirstName() + " " + _person.getLastName()); } Is there something wrong with my syntax for the nested tags?
