[Raw newbie] Struts/JSTL - A cople of urgent question (Message resources)

[Johan Wasserman - BCX - Infrastructure Services]

As a RAW newbie:
How do I buid an ArayList of properties for a menu?
for example;
I have a resource file containing:
DISTANCE_MILE=Mile
DISTANCE_KILO=Kilometre
DISTANCE_FEET=Feet
DISTANCE_METRE=Metre
AREA_SQ_FOOT=Sqare Foot
AREA_SQ_METRE=Square Metre
VOLUME_QUBIC_INCH=q'
VOLUME_QUBIC_METRE=m2
 
now, I need to (from a class), get the resource bundle and build an
araylist of (key, value) for DISTANCE* so that only the distance
parameters show up in my list.
 
To do this even more trickier.... if I have something like:
LANG_EN_US=en_US, USA
LANG_EN_UK=en_UK, England
...etc
 
how do I have the en_US (constant) as the value and USA (variable,
depending on language) as the display?
 
get my drift?
 
Thank you for a wonderrful forum (MSDN, go suck eggs!)
