Laurie, Thanks for your reply.I'm not sure if I understand you clearly.I have used bean:define inside the logic:present tag as seen in the code snippet.This is supposed to define a scripting variable named by the "id" attribute as described in the Struts docs:
"Create a new attribute (in the scope specified by the toScope property, if any), and a corresponding scripting variable, both of which are named by the value of the id attribute" http://struts.apache.org/struts-taglib/tagreference-struts-bean.html The issue I have is that the scripting variable "userRequest" is not created by the bean:define tag inside the logic:present tag. Instead "userRequest" is created as a pageContext attribute. So, if I use the scriptlet below to access the pageContext attributes, my code works: --------- <% dsap.business.UserRequest userRequest = (dsap.business.UserRequest)pageContext.getAttribute("userRequest"); %> <% dsap.business.Employee employee = (dsap.business.Employee)pageContext.getAttribute("employee"); %> <html:text name="formBean" property="reqType" value="<%=userRequest.getReqType()%>" /> ---------- Anyway, the same code (bean:define embedded inside logic tags) used to work perfectly with the previous version of my server (JSP 1.1).So, I'm puzzled why it doesn't work with the latest version of my server - OC4J 9.0.4 (JSP 1.2). Could this be some JSP 1.1 - 1.2 compatibility issue?
