Hmm... Maybe someone smarter than me can say for sure, but I'd be willing to bet that ActionMessages can be textual messages only. This would seem to be what your experience indicates.

One thing you could do is set your messages as attributes of your ActionForm, then display them from there with <bean:message> tags.

That feels to me like circumventing something in Struts though, so let's see if anyone else replies with a better answer...

Thanks for your reply.

I'm using struts 1.1. I'm retrieving the values through an action class. The
option value is passed from a jsp and the class looks up the corresponding
resource.

For example somePage.jsp?q=info will look up the help.info resource in the
ActionClass

ActionMessages messages = new ActionMessages();
String helpOutput = "help." + option;
messages.add(ActionMessages.GLOBAL_MESSAGE, new ActionMessage(helpOutput));
saveMessages(request,messages);

Can it be done this way so that the html is in the properties file still
works when displayed on the resulting jsp?

Thanks

I just tried this, and the <br> get rendered properly and I get linebreaks.

What version of Struts are you using?  What code is in your JSP to display
the message resource?
