Thanks.  The following also worked:

<s:a href="%{#application['view-register']}"  
title="%{getText('textTitle.account.register')}">
          <s:text name="link.account.register" /></s:a>

Bottom-line, if we want to use "-" hyphen on OGNL expressions we must define 
them in the following way

%{application['var-name']}

This is great.  Now I can name my JSP URL action variables the same way as the 
equivalent Struts 2 Annotation actions.

Thank you very much.

Rubens.

Sorry, I had a typo...I meant you could use your hyphens and try this:
%{#application['view-register']}

BTW,  the only reason I strated using the "-" minus sign in my JSP URL
variable is to follow the convention used by Struts Annotation that uses
"-" sign to map to the corresponding Action class name.

For example, if the actions are in a package
"com.softlagos.web.struts2.action";

And I have a class called
"com.softlagos.web.struts2.action.ViewRegister.class", then, the action
name "view-register" maps to the ViewRegister class.

Therefore, the Struts 2 Annotation is using the "-" minus to map action
names to action classes.

And since my URLs map to actions, I therefore named the variables the
same way.  That is, with the "-" minus sign in it.  However, I did not
know that I would have problems with OGNL in the <s:a href="..." />.
Now, that I know OGNL does not work with "-" minus sign, I am renaming
all my variables to use the "camel" notation which is what I use
throughout all my Java code anyway.

Thanks,

Rubens.

I prefer camel case anyway for my variable names but if you like the
hyphen, I think you could do something like this:
%{#application['viewRegister']}

That fixed the problem.

The following works:

<s:a href="%{#application.viewRegister}"
title="%{getText('textTitle.account.register')}">
          <s:text name="link.account.register" /></s:a>

Bottom-line: We *cannot* use "-" (minus-sign) when naming variables that
are used by the OGNL parser.  Like in the case of the <s:a href="..."
/>.

Thank you very much.

Rubens.

It seems to me that the minus sign in your expression might be being
confused by the OGNL parser.  You might try renaming your variable to
something that is consistent with the Java bean naming convention and
stay away from arithmetic operands.

Maybe change

<s:a href="%{#application.view-register}"
 title="%{getText('textTitle.account.register')}">

to

<s:a href="%{#application.viewRegister}"
 title="%{getText('textTitle.account.register')}">
