Re: How to pass OGNL expressions to JSP includes

[Wes Gamble]

Randy,

Thanks!  So, in general, is this an alternative way to reference these properties?  Where can I find out more about the ${...} syntax?

You said "EL" in your reply.  So, is this standard JSP EL or is it OGNL?  Are they different, or is "EL" in Struts actually OGNL?

Thanks,
Wes
