this link has details on Resource Bundles inheritance http://developer.java.sun.com/developer/technicalArticles/Intl/ResourceBundles/ So far I find the Struts framework pretty good in terms of response time on JSP pages loaded with <bean:message key="app.text"/> I am not sure about the implementation details. If the Locales you need at contained into ISO-8859-1 you shouldn't have much problems. If not, both reading incoming Form data & outputing dynamic has interesting challenges. Let me know if you need help with these. Seb.
