I'm not getting the parameter substitution to work correctly.
Resource:
message.benefits=The FedEx Custom Critical Shipping
Toolkit enables you to:
I've tried two different methods to perform the substitution.
"/>
and
But both end up creating a URL like:
https://localhost:7002/track/tiles/{0}
If I hard code it like this
it works fine, so I know the param substitution itself is working, just not the
substitution from the resource file.

It is a little more code but I'll argue that it is not any less
readable. Most importantly it works with Struts links and will properly
encode the URL:
applicationResources.properties:
message.benefits=The FedEx Custom Critical {0} enables ...
mainPage.shippingLinkName=Shipping Toolkit
