Try setting the message="true" attribute of the <html:messages> tag. The default is false which means that you are actually testing for ActionErrors not ActionMessages.
-----Original Message----- From: Matthew Hegarty [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 19 April 2004 15:49 To: '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' Subject: ActionMessages won't display Hello I am hoping someone can help with an ActionMessages problem I am setting ActionMessages in my action, but they are not appearing in the page. The action code is: if(showDetails.size() == 0 ) { LOGGER.debug("no ShowDetails found"); ActionMessages messages = new ActionMessages(); messages.add(ActionMessages.GLOBAL_MESSAGE, new ActionMessage("errors.none.found", "showDetail")); saveMessages(request,messages); return mapping.findForward("none"); } The JSP code is: <logic:present name="<%=Action.MESSAGE_KEY%>"> <P> messages found: <html:messages id="messages" name="<%=ActionMessages.GLOBAL_MESSAGE%>" bundle="JSP_MESSAGES"/> </P> </logic:present> The log output confirms that the java snippet is called. The 'messages found' string appears in the JSP, but no error message. I have tried various configurations of params to the 'messages' tag, including adding "message='true'". I have the following in struts-config.xml <message-resources key="JSP_MESSAGES" parameter="jsp-messages" null="false"/> I have a file in 'WEB-INF/classes' called 'jsp-messages.properties' This contains the string: 'errors.none.found=No {0}(s) were found' Hope someone can help - this one's got me stumped! cheers Matt --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ------------------------------------------------------------------------ For more information about Barclays Capital, please visit our web site at http://www.barcap.com.
