Thomas,
(Probably a) Dumb question ....
>From the "${area.name}" it looks like you're using Velocity Templates. I
thought Velocity couldn't mix with JSP's like that (My impression from ch 17
of 'Struts in Action'. How are you mixing the two? (Or is there a Velocity
update which allows it?)

David

Subject: DOTs, wild cards, and action mapping
I started using the wild-card support in action mappings (from a CVS
build). It works, but I noticed something strange (until I realized
what it was doing). So, I have a action mapping like:
<action
path="/areas/*"
type="apackage.AreaAction">
<forward name="success" path=".area"/>
</action>
Then in some jsp I have:
<html:link title="${area.name}" action="/areas/${area.address}">
Where area.address expands to '10.0.0.1'. Struts will look for the last
dot in an action and chop it off. So I keep getting a string like:
<a href="/managearea/do/areas/10.0.0" title="area1">area1</a>
So I am not using extensions in my struts configuration and I would
intuitively think that I would get '10.0.0.1' back. Is this an
ambiguity that appeared with the new wildcard support that cannot be
resolved (meaning I should never use '.' in any names) or is there some
way to resolve this? Perhaps I must always use extensions to combat
this (i.e. action="/areas/${area.address}.bogus_extension" - which is
fine by me as a workaround)?
