I filed this bug: https://issues.apache.org/struts/browse/WW-2015
I think this is a valid feature but agree it should be forced evaluation as I have in my example. Definitely think it needs to be fixed though.

I don't believe that every attribute is expecting an OGNL expression. The problem is that the tag reference claims "method" is evaluated, but the source doesn't appear (on cursory examination) to evaluate it. I think the issue would be that if 'method' was always evaluated then if you were just passing in a string you'd need to quote it: <s:url ... mathod="'list'" .../> which is unwieldy. This would be a field where I'd want to see "forced evaluation", i.e., require the use of the OGNL escape chars if it was meant to be an expression, otherwise it would be a simple string: <s:url ... method="%{myExpr}" .../> (force eval) <s:url ... method="myMethod" .../> (simple string) I'd file a JIRA; don't know what the outcome would be. At minimum a documentation change, at most the creation of a set of "optionally evaluated" attributes. d. ____________________________________________________________________________ ________ Choose the right car based on your needs.
