RE: looking for success stories

[Dudley [EMAIL PROTECTED]]

We've just finished phase1 of our system for the South African Revenue
Services, an online tax return system, check it out on www.ipayment.co.za
Unfortunately though, to get the full appreciation for the site one has to
register as a taxpayer, but basically we used Tomcat, Struts and JBoss. The
user is able to register and recieve and send their tax returns/payments
electronically

Subject: looking for success stories


Hello,

We are currently in the early design stages of an extremely high profile
application and I am considering using Struts.  I have used it in the past
for several very small applications with no more than a couple concurrent
users.  But since we only get one

shot at making this application work (or we'll all be out on our arses) I
must make a very convincing case for Struts.

Does anyone have any success stories that they'd like to share?  Or can
anyone point me in the direction of any articles or web pages or whatever
where I may find info?

By the way, we are going to deploy on Websphere (we're currently on 3.5.3
but will hopefully move to 4.0 before we roll it out) so I'd be especially
interested if anyone has successfully deployed on WAS.

Thanks!

Are you talking about the struts-example webapp or is it an app of your own

See to it that the struts.jar is not in your classpath while your tomcat

Why not use the Action to populate request scoped variables that you then

Or have a look at the source code to the  tag and

Re: automatically calling an Action

[Erik Hatcher]

Use a Filter part of Servlet 2.3.   I assume you could map all requests
to a custom ActionServlet also, but ultimately a Filter is the way to go.
I'm using Resin 2.0 which supports Servlet 2.3 and filters are working
great.

Thanks for the idea Bill, this idea looks a little more elegant than my Struts hack 
idea since it wouldn't involve having to re-hack Struts each time it is re-released.  
I'll want to mull it over some more but at first glance this looks pretty doable.

Also thanks to Tuesday's reply from Robert Parker.  I'm not sure we can achieve the 
results we need using the static web app mappings in the war file alone.  The reason 
is that we need to dynamically add a prefixing layer to our URIs to distinguish 
between the app root and the doc root.  The web.xml
mapping file would indeed allow us to map from "/bar" to "/foo/bar", but in our case 
we also need to dynamically map to other app root prefixes as well.

The main problem is that Struts [v1.0] seems to assume that the app root is always 
going to be a simple hardcoded slash "/" when in our case, if it is used at all, it is 
actually going to need to be dynamically generated as something resembling 
"/prefixspec/".  As such, we either need a way to
dynamically prefix to the app root, or we need to remove the app root prefix 
altogether and enforce the use of
relative URLs across all of our Struts based applications (which is also problematic).

call EJB from struts

[May]

Hello all !
Is there a recommended way to call EJB from the struts framework?

What I am doing now is...
I have StatefulSessionBean "EJB" and "EJB" has a
method getHello() which simply returns "Hello".

(1)ActionForm class
(a) create setEJB(EJB ejb) and getEJB() methods.

(2)Action class
(a) in the perform() method, first call the actionForm.getEJB() method.
(b) if the result of (a) is null, create javax.ejb.Context context and
lookup EJB,
create EJB instance.
(c) call actionForm.setEJB(EJB ejb) method and save the EJB instance you
have
created in (b).
(d) call ejb.getHello() method and set the result to
request.getSession().setAttribute("output from ejb",ejb.getHello).

(3)JSP
(a) from JSP, call session.getAttribute("output from ejb").

Is there better way rather than setting output from EJB in Attribute?

Your experiences and suggstions will certainly be a great help !!

Thank you.
May

Reading Japanese from Resource_jp.properties file

[May]

Hi all !
I have read about the trouble when reading Japanese from
Resource.properties file in the mail archive. Actually I had the same 
trouble myself too.

Finally I got through this with below solution.

1) Save the Resource.propeties file by "JIS" encoding.
2) Set the charset of jsp to "ISO2022JP", like below. 
<%@ page contentType="text/html; charset=ISO2022JP" %>

Viewing from IE results fine.
IE's encode is set to "default".

Re: with

[Matt Raible]

One thing I've done in the past is to always place a   before my closing
 - that way you're guaranteed a space "after" the data and it doesn't
affect your layout.  This is only necessary if you have borders on your tables.
 The other solution is to remove table borders, and then this is not a concern
;)

RE: with

[Patrick Vanden Driessche]

Hi David,

I am assuming that you are using bean:write to retrieve data values from
your model beans. Your problem is purely related to the presentation
(view/jsp).
So, a clean solution would be to create a custom JSP tag, which would do the
same as the the Struts bean:write tag
(org.apache.struts.taglib.bean.WriteTag.java).
This new tag could then do the additional check on the property value, and
write the  default value " " to the output writer if the original bean
property's value is empty...

Hope this inspires you :-)

Patrick.

Getting collections of messages

[Adam Hardy]

Hello,

Is it possible to return collections of messages from
the ApplicationResources.properties file?

Eg the ApplicationResources.properties could be:
page1.optionbox.1=Apples
page1.optionbox.2=Oranges
page1.optionbox.3=Pears
...
...

I would like to get page1.optionbox.* as a collection
to populate an options tag.

I have looked through the JavaDoc for
org.apache.struts.util.MessageResources and it doesn't
have any methods that return collections or arrays so
I guess the answer is probably no.

Is there a way to acheive this functionality?

Thanks Adam.

may be not. as far as i know. but you can have a work around having one

so all u r classes can use the same key but replace the default value. this
way u can use

Re: Cannot find ActionMappings Error - second time I am posting -

[Rama Krishna]

perhaps your type might be a problem

type should refer to complete java class type including any packages

eg: mypackage.LogonForm   & mypackage.LogonAction

also check, if your struts-config.xml is in your web-inf folder.
i guess u don't need "/" before ur path name 
it seems like u r trying to access jsp as ../jsp/logon/logon.jsp check your
forward too.


hope this helps,
rama.

RE: Using multiple ActionServlet's

[Allamsetty, Venkata]

Bulk of the work gets done in the perform method of an action class.
ActionServlet is nothing but the controller.
If your question is reg. use of multiple action classes one delegating a
task to the other, the answer is yes.

we just need to forward from one action to the other. 

hope this helps.

thanks

RE: Cannot find ActionMappings Error - second time I am posting -

[Aparna Tula]

I am not sure about your package structure, but we include the package
in the type attribute

   

 
  
  
 

But if that's the problem, maybe it would have reported a
'ClassNotFoundException'. 

I am not really sure. Your struts-config file seems to be alright
otherwise(to me). 

I will let you know, if I figure out something. And do let me know, if
you figure it out first.

I have now finished updating several html Struts tags to produce indexed

such as

How to Create an ActionError with a text message

[Rajan Gupta]

ActionError normally takes a key to a property in ApplicationResources
file. But I would like to report errors without putting all the errors in
the properties file.

I would like to continue to use the  tag.

Is there a way of reporting errors from an Action which can be reported by
 without putting the message string in the resource?

Thanks for your help,
Rajan

RE: Cannot find ActionMappings Error - second time I am posting -

I came across that error this morning(Cannot find ActionMappings or
ActionFormBeans collection).

My mistake was that my stuts-config.xml file had a syntax error for ex:


(forgot the closing
/)


I changed the forward tag to 
 

And it worked! If not exactly that, check if you are not making any
syntax errors anyplace else in your struts-config.

Hope this helps!

Newbie question: bean values in pages

[Marcelo Vanzin]

Hi, this is not particularly a question about Struts, but about JSP, and 
since I haven't found any answers in the literature I've been reading, 
and my tests have failed, I decided to ask.

Let's say I have some value stored in the request so I can use it in my 
JSP page. Generally, I'd do something like:



Using the Struts bean tag library. Now let's say that I want to write 
that same thing, but inside quotes, so as to pass it as a value to a 
tag's attribute:



I haven't found how to do this with the taglib syntax. Is there any way?

I was able to use a scriptlet to do it:



But it is pretty ugly, and if the bean is not in the request but in 
another scope, it would get worse to write a general case...

The taglib way (if there's a way to do it with taglibs) is not that 
beautiful (that's one thing i like about template engines), but much better.

Any help with that?

Eric,

I can't really give you a success story yet, our first Struts application
isn't complete and I'd say we did some things wrong and did some things
right along the way - but overall things are going very well and Struts has
been very useful.  

Just hang around here for a bit and you'll get some good pointers.  Others
on the list have posted some excellent design patterns, success stories and
lessons learned as I'm sure they'll share.  :)  Check out
http://husted.com/struts for some good resources.

As for WebSphere, I can vouch for it with both 3.5.3 and 4.0.  There are a
few things to be aware of prior to moving forward.  First and foremost -
both WAS 3.5.x and 4.0 are using versions of Jasper that are slightly behind
the latest spec; unfortunately, Struts makes use of the parts of the spec
wherein WAS is lacking.  A very simple change has been made to the Form
taglib that will allow Struts 1.0 to work in a WAS environment.  It can be
downloaded at: http://www.enfused.com/struts.jar

Second, in 3.5.3 deployment requires some extra steps and some tweaking. A
list of the special steps can be found:
http://jakarta.apache.org/struts/installation-was352-x.html

As for 4.0, deployment is pretty straight forward.  The Application Assembly
tool is the nicest and most usable J2EE deployment tool I've seen to date
and will get the job done just fine.  The fact that 4.0 is J2EE compliant
helps a lot too - finally we can use EAR's and WAR's properly. :)

Hope that helps,

Hello,

We are currently in the early design stages of an extremely high profile
application and I am considering using Struts.  I have used it in the past
for several very small applications with no more than a couple concurrent
users.  But since we only get one

shot at making this application work (or we'll all be out on our arses) I
must make a very convincing case for Struts.

Does anyone have any success stories that they'd like to share?  Or can
anyone point me in the direction of any articles or web pages or whatever
where I may find info?

By the way, we are going to deploy on Websphere (we're currently on 3.5.3
but will hopefully move to 4.0 before we roll it out) so I'd be especially
interested if anyone has successfully deployed on WAS.

Thanks!

for several very small applications with no more than a couple concurrent
users.  But since we only get one

shot at making this application work (or we'll all be out on our arses) I
must make a very convincing case for Struts.

Does anyone have any success stories that they'd like to share?  Or can
anyone point me in the direction of any articles or web pages or whatever
where I may find info?

By the way, we are going to deploy on Websphere (we're currently on 3.5.3
but will hopefully move to 4.0 before we roll it out) so I'd be especially
interested if anyone has successfully deployed on WAS.

Thanks!

html:radio tag indexed?

[Princeton Lau]

Hello everyone and especially Dave Hays,

Has anyone tried updating the html:radio Struts tag to produce indexed
names?  I am currently making a multiple choice survey application and
having an indexed radio button would be great!

Thanks,

Princeton

>From http://husted.com/about/struts/indexed-tags.htm
.
.
.
I have now finished updating several html Struts tags to produce indexed
names
such as



when used within an iterate tag. These tags involve only minor changes to
the
existing tags, and to trigger them, "indexed=true" is added to the tag.
.
.

Re: radio select

[martin . cooper]

I'm not sure I understand your warning. For a set of radio buttons, there
should not be an array in the form bean, just a simple string property,
since only one radio button from a set can be selected at any time.

Re: radio select

[martin . cooper]

Which radio button is selected when the JSP is displayed depends on the
value of the property in your form bean. For example, if your form bean's
'radioBtn' property is set to "credit", then the second radio button in your
example will appear selected. You should set this up in your Action before
forwarding to the JSP for display.

Subclass ActionServlet to behave as central controller: Solution

[Matt Raible]

In reply to message: http://www.mail-archive.com/struts-user@jakarta.apache.org/msg12014.html
 
I am trying to proxy to my action class via /do/* 
rather than *.do
 
Therefore, I need to make some modifications to my 
DefaultAction.java - but I'm having a little difficulty.
 
String forwardPath = requestURI.substring( 
contextPath.length());forwardPath = forwardPath.substring( 
0,forwardPath.indexOf("do")) + "jsp";
 
 
So I'd imagine the following should work - 
right?
 
String requestURI = 
"/NASApp/timetracker/do/timesheetList";
 
forwardPath = 
forwardPath.substring(forwardPath.substring(forwardPath.indexOf("do/")+3, 
forwardPath.length());
 
 
    

prefix for forward parameter

[Mike Dewhirst]

Is it be possible to add a prefix to the "forward" parameter in an action
mapping. I'm not too hot with xml, so could you explain how to do this? I
presume you could define _something_ in the struts-config.xml/web.xml and
include it in the forward value...

Thanks for any advice!

RE: caching custom tag results

[Laine Donlan]

Mike -

We sometimes use the page context to store tag results under a key name.
If tag executes multiple times per page then it checks the page context
for something under that key before going forward with processing.  One
thing though, if the results of the tag depend on the attributes
provided to it, then you have to some sort of intelligent keying so that
the tags with similar attributes will be cached correctly.

Slightly off-subject, but does anyone know how you can define values in xml

String and Multiboxes

[Becky Moyer]

I think this is what you need.  This is talked about in other messages in 
the mailing list, but this is hopefully a summary.

The array of strings that represents the checked boxes will only contain 
strings representing the boxed that were checked.
As an example - the X's represent checked boxes.

String 1 X
String 2
String 3 X
String 4


You'd then have 2 arrays.  The one array contains the labels (String 1, 
String 2, String 3, String 4), and the checked array would have (String 1, 
String 3).  Thus, you always have to pass along your labels as well as the 
checked values.

I don't really have time to look through your source, and will be out of 
town for a while, but from your email, this seems to be the issue.

Hope it helps,
Becky

You would need to subclass ActionServlet and override the initMapping()
method (where struts-config.xml is actually parsed), and replace it with
appropriate functionality to configure the mappings (and so on) from your
database instead.

The rest of Struts does not care at all where these things were configured
from -- it only wants the collections that are made available as servlet
context attributes, so this is conceptually pretty straightforward -- just
iterate through rows in your database tables and configure objects like
ActionMapping instances, and call methods like addMapping() to register
them.

You can use  to generate read-only output from properties of
your form bean, just like you can from any other bean -- so that is
probably the easiest way to do it.

At present, you have to code the name of the form bean into the
 tag for this.  In 1.1 development we'll look at how to avoid
the need for this, and/or provide an  tag that does it for
you.

RE: location of ApplicationResources.properties...

[MALBEQUI Stephane]

Hi,

in the web.xml file when you configure the action servlet, the parameter
application says where to find the ApplicationResources.properties file
(like a java class), in the case below the ApplicationResources.properties
must be in the WEB-INF/classes/org/apache/struts/webapp/example directory


  
  
action
org.apache.struts.action.ActionServlet

  application
 
org.apache.struts.webapp.example.ApplicationResources



Hope this helps.

Re: Work Flow Question

[Bob Byron]

Although I have not yet tried it, you might consider
subclassing your WizardAction.  WizardAction would
have all of the methods necessary to perform the
entire task, then have one subclass for each of the
steps all the while using the same WizardForm.

WizardAction extends Action
WizardStep1Action extends WizardAction.
WizardStep2Action extends WizardAction.

This would allow you to map the seperate steps into
the struts-config file where they are identifiable and
the forwards are configurable, but still maintain the
majaority of the business logic in one class.

RE: Help with logic:iterate

If you use the  tag, it should be pretty simple. Since you
already have a collection of "songs" with each "song" having properties
for the label and value, you should be able to use this.

<% Collection songs = SongCache.getInstance().fetchAll(); %>

If it is a request scoped form, then the form bean you use to display
values in JSP differs from the one which is populated from the request.

Each request gets its own fresh and empty form bean and this bean is
then populated from the request. No action is activated to pre-populate
the form.

One possible sulution for this problem would be to insert a 
for each . This assures, the form properties to be filled.

Re: Relative URL problem in action taglib processing

[Bill Clinton]

David,
  I am doing something similiar in an application I am working on. 
While I am not stripping the slash, I am modifying the path returned by 
an action mapping by adding parameters to it without modifying any 
Struts code.

I recommend this solution (or something similar):  Write an extension of 
ActionForward called SlashlessActionForward.  Make the constructor of 
this object take an Action forward object like this:

 public SlashlessActionForward(ActionForward forward) {

 setName(forward.getName());
 setPath(forward.getPath());
 setRedirect(forward.getRedirect());

 }

now, override the getPath() method to return the path without the slash.
(you would also need to overide setPath() to set a String property in 
your class)

you can now use this in an ActionClass perform method like this:

SlashlessActionForward forward =
new SlashlessActionForward(mapping.findForward("success"));
return forward;

No it cannot. Date is not so easy to parse since it is locale dependent.
Also the displaying a date is not easy.

This brings me to one general architecture question:

Where do you (I mean all struts users) put the formatting/parsing´of
values?

For display only data, I try to put it into the JSP (with custom tags).

But what about the editable data? Is the ActionForm the right place?

I store the data in non-string form (like Date) and the get/set methods
operate with strings. The language dependent formats use an addiotional
property "locale" which I set either in the reset() method (from request
and session).

It could be done simpler, I used only string aware ActionForms and the
whole formatting were done in Action.perform, but this wouldn't be conform
with the MVC pattern, woul'd it?

Struts+Jbuilder5 : Invocation error

[bruno . o . faure]

Hi all,

I'm trying to use Struts with JBuilder5. I've followed the steps described
by Anthony Martin (http://www1.tramsasp.com/?section=dev), but I get an
invocation error on index.jsp when I right-click WebRun :

C:\jbuilder5\jdk1.3\bin\java -classpath "[...]" org.apache.jasper.JspC
-d 
"D:/jbuilder5/jakarta-tomcat-3.2.1/webapps/strutsblank/classes/Temporary_Files/_jsp_/strutsBlank"

"index.jsp": Invocation Error

If I access the application web directly through Tomcat, everything is Ok,
so it's should something with JBuider environnement...

Any idea ?

public void setKeys(Object[] keys) {
this.keys = keys;
}
public Object[] getKeys() {
return this.keys;
}

and when I hit submit everything is OK.
i.e. keys.length = 0,1,2,3,4,5,6,

but when I add
method="post" enctype="multipart/form-data"
keys.length always equals 0 or 1
why?

could someone point me to the solution, please ?

HELP : Old HTML property tag for readonly field doesn't exist in the new release of strust

[MALBEQUI Stephane]

Hi,

the old Struts User's Guide talk about a html tag call property, see the
description below :

property displays the named bean property within a form -- use it instead of
text for properties that should be read only. 

My problem is that this tag doesn't exist in the new release of strust, so
my question is : 

which tag to use to perform this task without using a html:text tag with a
readonly=true ?

Thanx in advance.
 
Regards
Stephane M.

Problem with templates(?)

[keilhofh]

Hello,

I am using weblogic server 5.1 (sp8) and struts 1.0 with jdk1.3.0_02
In a startup.jsp I'm putting a bean into the session and then I forward to the login page where I want to use the bean.

If I do this the very first time after server startup, the constructor for the bean I am using is called twice (!!). 

After startup.jsp I enter the page login.jsp which calls the constructor another time and my settings are gone :-(

This happens only if the pages (_startup.java, _login.java) are not generated (only the first time). If I enter the startup 
page later, then the constructor is only called once (if I have a new client) or never if the client remains the same.
This is the expected behavior.

Does anybody have similar experiences?? 

Do I have to change settings in weblogic.properties  or  web.xml ??? Is this a struts problem??

What makes matters more complicated I use templates: the login page uses the struts template and fills the page with 
sidebar.jsp and loginContent.jsp. In the loginContent.jsp I include a header.jsp page which uses the bean I initialized 
in startup.jsp.

In the logs I can see the constructor-log just after the following lines:

Mi Aug 22 10:52:11 GMT+02:00 2001:  resolving taglib uri '/WEB-INF/struts-bean.tld' to tagl
ib-location /WEB-INF/struts-bean.tld:
Mi Aug 22 10:52:11 GMT+02:00 2001:  resolving taglib uri '/WEB-INF/struts-html.tld' to tagl
ib-location /WEB-INF/struts-html.tld:
Mi Aug 22 10:52:12 GMT+02:00 2001:  resolving taglib uri '/WEB-INF/struts-logic.tld' to tag
lib-location /WEB-INF/struts-logic.tld:
[DEBUG] 2001-08-22 10:52:13,633 navigation.navigation  <<->> constructor call

I added logs after every jsp:usebean -tag but these logs are documenting that no constructor is called, if the bean is already in the session.
So I don't know where this constructor call really comes from?? I couldn't find a class.instantiate in the _template.java 
nor in other pages where it shouldn't happen...

Any help is appreciated.

AW: SilverStream behind firewall

[Stuber Urs]

We got the following explanations from SilverStream:


If the server running the struts application does not have access to the
apache site for to get the dtd, the dtd must effectively be placed on the
local file system.

SilverStream searches relative to the $SILVERSTREAM_HOME/bin directory

For

 

struts-config_1_0.dtd must be placed in $SILVERSTREAM_HOME/bin.


To place struts-config_1_0.dtd in $SILVERSTREAM_HOME/dtd_catalog use
 


Another possibility is to avoid dtd validation at all when deploying to
production. Only validate the dtd at development and test where the place of
the dtd is not that important, but where checking validity can be inportant.
To do this:

Add a new init parameter to web.xml for the action servlet...


validating
false


This is DIFFERENT that the 'validate' param which you probably already have.
Don't include the DTD reference in you struts-config.xml file and this
should all work. For more info on the validating param see the javadoc for
the main action controller servlet. You won't need to bother with the
resource DTD catalog stuff, and your WAR should now be portable to any J2EE
app server without requiring pre-configuring. 
===

As a matter of fact, we got the struts-example running either with this
information or with your suggestion. We still advice not to use a reference
to localhost because afterwards the app server 3.7.3 definitely hangs and a
silvermasterinit is necessary.

radio select

[Bille Madsen]

Hi,

I have the following code:






Just two normal radiobuttons, have do I use the 'selected'-option which html
provide?
If the user select one the radio-buttons and come back to the page later,
none of the radio-buttons are selected, but all other info is still
presented(struts text-fields and so on).
By the way, I get the values correct in the formbean, so no problem there...

Anyone having a answer?

Thanks

Bille

RE: html:link

[Marcel Andres]

Hello Bernhard,

I am not sure if I got your problem right. Do you want to format the link name or the 
link itself?

If you want to format the link, I would try to do someting like:

">

I did not create a link like this before, but I use a similar construct, where I 
access the value of a bean property. This is not using the sturts  tag, but 
it should work, too.

Marcel

RE: Struts with WebSphere 3.5.4 on AIX

[Edelmiro Estevez]

This works fine for me

1 Start up the adminserver.
2 Start up Admin Console.
3 Select "Servlet 2.2/JSP 1.1 Full Compliance Mode for the Default Servlet
Engine. Restart the Default Server.
4 Use the Convert War file task to convert the struts-example.war from the
struts distrib as-is.
Convert to the default_server, default servlet engine and standard install
directory
5 Click on struts-example in the Admin Console under Default Server/Default
Servlet Engine and click the advanced tab on the right hand side of the
screen.
   -Add ./AppServer/hosts/default_host/struts-example/web to the
ClassPath
   -Down where it says Default Error Page, enter /ErrorReporter and then
click Apply.
6 Edit the struts-config.xml and web.xml to point the DTD file to local
system as:
   
   
7 Copy struts-config_1_0.dtd, web-app_2_2.dtd and web-app_2_3.dtd from
struts.jar to /AppServer/dtd (you have to create this dir).
8 Replace the struts.jar at
.../AppServer/hosts/default_host/struts-example/servlets with the one update
the FormTag from Chris: http://www.enfused.com/struts.jar
9 Start the Default Server via the Admin Console. You should see a whole
bunch of ActionServlet messages in the default_host_stdout.log file with no
exceptions.
10 Via a browser accessed the app using
http://youraix/struts-example/index.jsp.


The other question is what is the difference between the original
FormTag.java and the modified by Chris???. The original does not work.

Edel.

Asunto: Struts with WebSphere 3.5.4 on AIX



Hi, all

Have anyone successfully run Struts samples on AIX with WebSphere 3.5.4? I
can run the sample with WebSphere 3.5.4 on NT4 but get various errors on
AIX3.4. The error seems all related to the XML parser. I've tried
JAXP1.0.1, IBM parser and the even the one come with WebSphere, but all
failed.

Any idea? Thanks.

iterate in a template

[Marion Schwarz]

Hello world,

I'm trying to fill a struts template with an interate tag. The collection, an 
ArrayList, is set in the jsp page.
My Code looks like this:

JSP-Page
=
...
<%
  ArrayList testList = new ArrayList();
  testList.add("test_1");
  testList.add("test_2");
  testList.add("test_3");

  pageContext.setAttribute("testList", testList, PageContext.PAGE_SCOPE);
%>
  
  

...





Template- Page
===
<%@ taglib uri='/WEB-INF/struts-template.tld' prefix='template' %>
<%@ taglib uri='/WEB-INF/struts-logic.tld' prefix='logic' %>
<%@ taglib uri='/WEB-INF/struts-bean.tld' prefix='bean' %>
<% Object testList = pageContext.getAttribute("testList", PageContext.PAGE_SCOPE );  %>


...
  



 




Unfortunatly I keep getting a  PageContextImpl.handlePageException.
What am I doing wrong ??
