Hello all,
I was looking for a solution to a problem where within a JSP page I need to store a message (that I can obtain from bean:message tag) in a string for later use. I tried the example below with the following values: <bean:define id="schemaName"><bean:message key="db.schema"/></bean:define> But everytime I load the page I get the following exception: javax.servlet.ServletException: Define tag can contain only one of name attribute, value attribute, or body content Any thoughts? -Gp -----Original Message----- From: Nagendra Kumar O V S [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: August 1, 2003 7:47 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: Using a key as an argument to bean:message hi, u can't send the key as the argument to the bean:message, though u might want to consider this <bean:define id="realValue" > <bean:message key="customer.label" /> </bean:define> <bean:message key="field.lookupbutton" arg0="<%=realLabel%>"/> -- nagi -------Original Message------- From: Struts Users Mailing List <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Date: Friday, August 01, 2003 05:00:41 PM To: Struts Users Mailing List (E-mail) <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: Using a key as an argument to bean:message Hi, Has anyone got any ideas on how to use a message key as an argument in a bean:message call. e.g. <bean:message key="field.lookupbutton" arg0Key="customer.label"/> At the moment I am using a scriptlet to access the message resources and assign the message for the argument to a page variable. e.g. <% org.apache.struts.util.MessageResources messages = (org.apache.struts.util.MessageResources)request.getAttribute(org.apache.str uts.Globals.MESSAGES_KEY); String realLabel = messages.getMessage("customer.label"); %> <bean:message key="field.lookupbutton" arg0="<%=realLabel%>"/> This works but is a bit messy. Note that both keys are actually dynamic and come from nested beans on the ActionForm - I can't just create a fixed composite message in my application.properties. thanks, Paul ************************************** Axios Email Confidentiality Footer Privileged/Confidential Information may be contained in this message.
