Thanks Dave, that's sorted it. I've worked with many technologies over many years, but the quirks of OGNL with Struts2 seem to defy reason for me. Totally frustrating!
But thanks again for your help. >The answer is that OGNL interprets a single character between single quotes as a character, not a string, so the original comparison will not work. Using double quotes will work, as will using a more meaningful representation of the action (like "insert"). >This has been a FAQ entry for some time: >http://struts.apache.org/2.x/docs/why-wont-the-if-tag-evaluate-a-one-char-string.html >Dave --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: user-unsubscr...@struts.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: user-h...@struts.apache.org -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/Simple-Question--tp21037097p21044006.html Sent from the Struts - User mailing list archive at Nabble.com. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: user-unsubscr...@struts.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: user-h...@struts.apache.org
