That's not what I meant. Using "key" in the declaration is different than using "key" when asking for a message/value. > > Currently, I use the following to access a message resource bundle for > a given JSP page. For ie.

You cannot link directly to a jsp and expect Struts to change the Module. It might seem that since you are using a forward from the struts-config that it would be enough, but that's not the case. You must explicitely "switch" to Module B. I wrote a small demo app that demonstrates 3 ways to do this. It is here: http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/struts/simple-modules-example.tar.gz?down load > > When the user clicks on the link, the switch occurs to the module b > struts config file no problem and renders the page appropriately.
