They can the different and serve different purposes. The name attribute that you have there means that the value will be picked from
yourAction.getUser().getZip().getCity(); The key will be used to lookup the resources files using the literal string 'user.zip.city', of course. Hope this helps. Harring. On 4/24/07, [EMAIL PROTECTED] <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
I notice key is now preferred over getText() and am now curious about something else. Is the name attribute necessary when using key? I would rather not duplicate myself unless S2 requires it. <s:textfield name="user.zip.city" key="user.zip.city" size="40" readonly="true" /> -- Scott [EMAIL PROTECTED]
