status messages in html:link tag
I want to implement a status message on a rollover for some of my links. I was considering doing something like: html:link href=http://www.google.com; target=_blank onmouseover=window.status='Go go google';return true which works fine. However, what I really want to do is pull the status message from my struts message-resources bundle for I18N. The only way I can think to do this is to use a scriptlet like : html:link href=http://www.google.com; target=_blank onmouseover=window.status='% getMessage(message.key);%';return true 2 questions... 1) is this the best way to do this? 2) if so, what can I use in the scriptlet (the getMessage() is fictional) to access the message? Thanks for your patience..

RE: status messages in html:link tag
ok follow-up and I'm sure this one will take 2 seconds to answer.. part 1) is there a JSTL way to do the bean:define? part 2) What does it mean when the status message from the below code by Bob comes out as a literal (i.e.. %=rollOverText%) instead of the string it represents? I've checked the scriptlet outside of the tag and it outputs correctly. I'm thinking that the html:link tag isn't pre-processing the scriptlet? -Original Message- From: Bob Arnott [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, March 31, 2005 12:41 PM To: Struts Users Mailing List Subject: Re: status messages in html:link tag Fumo, Vince wrote: I want to implement a status message on a rollover for some of my links.

RE: Struts + Spring or Struts versus Spring
Don't know if it's appropriate to do this, but I am adding my 2c as well. I've been using Spring and Hibernate with Struts for some time now and have found it to be excellent. If you are the book type, there is a very good book on Spring from Apress titled Pro Spring that covers the entire framework quite well. -Original Message- From: Joe Germuska [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, March 30, 2005 9:40 AM To: Ted Husted; Struts Users Mailing List Subject: Re: Struts + Spring or Struts versus Spring In short, what Ted said. More elaborately, I've been using Spring with a lot of Struts web apps, and I'm very happy with the combination. Spring does a whole lot more than Struts ever wanted to do, and you can use as much or as little of it as you like. And even though Spring MVC exists as a self-contained webapp framework, they also have some nice Struts-specific support, including base Action classes which are aware of Spring and going as far as an alternate RequestProcessor which supports using Spring as an Action factory where the Actions it creates are wired with references to your business expert collaborators. http://www.springframework.org/docs/api_1.2/org/springframework/web/struts/p ackage-summary.html The Spring WebFlow project also looks promising. This too comes with some Struts support. http://www.theserverside.com/common/printthread.tss?thread_id=32676 http://opensource.atlassian.com/confluence/spring/display/WEBFLOW/Home Joe At 7:35 AM -0500 3/30/05, Ted Husted wrote: Spring is a large project with several components. The Spring Core works just fine with Struts. You can use it to instantiate your business objects from Struts Actions. Aside from Spring Core, the Spring project also includes a Spring MVC component. Spring MVC does overlap with Struts. Spring MVC is a fine framework. Use whichever one works best for you. Yes, Struts + Spring + hibernate (or iBATIS) is an excellent approach. -Ted.

using fmt:message with Tiles and Struts
I am building a Struts Web application and I'm using Tiles for the first
time. I have it all set up and working nicely. My problem comes in the fact
that I want to use a standard messages.resources file for my page titles.
For example
home.title=Main Home Page
info.title=Intro Page
etc.
I am used to setting the bundle at the top of the page like:
fmt:setBundle basename=messages/
and then directly accessing keys as follows:
fmt:message key=home.title/
however I am now using tiles so what I had hoped was to use a tiles
attribute to pass the key :
definition name=.home extends=.baseDef
put name=titleKey value=title.home /
/definition
and then use the key in the tile like:
fmt:message key=${titleKey}/
however, nothing I've tried has worked (including just trying the
fmt:message tag w/o using Tiles like :
c:set var=titleKey value=home.title/) .
For some reason, the fmt:message tag refuses to accept expression values.
Can anyone offer me a best practice on how to handle this? Or at least solve
my problem?

RE: using fmt:message with Tiles and Struts
That was close to the first way I went about it. I did the following:
tiles:useAttribute name=titleKey scope=page/
and then I was able to access the key just fine ( I did a test of c:out
value=${titleKey} / and got home.title), proving that the problem
wasn't in the way I was using the tiles attribute.
For some reason, when I plugged in :
fmt:message key=${titleKey}/
I got the usual ???${titleKey}??? message from the fmt:message tag
Perhaps I'm doing something wrong somewhere. I even tried just doing the
following as a test:
c:set var=titleKey value=home.title/
fmt:message key=${titleKey}/
fmt:message key=home.title/
and I got the following:
???${titleKey}???

You need to import the Tiles attribute before you reference it:
tiles:importAttribute name=titleKey ignore=true /
c:out value=${titleKey} /

RE: using fmt:message with Tiles and Struts
I'm assuming you mean the jar? It's just the usual jstl.jar and the tld is
fmt.tld
hnm.. I just looked at the tld and I've got class names like :
tag
description
Maps key to localized message and performs parametric replacement
/description
namemessage/name
tag-classorg.apache.taglibs.standard.tag.rt.fmt.MessageTag/tag-class
I'm assuming now that I somehow am using the wrong tld.. if I am, can you
direct me to the correct one?

Ah. Yes, that's the problem... The tag is the rt version (run time) which
does not accept expressions.
JSTL comes with 2 sets of tags. One el (expression-language) and the other
rt (runtime), which allows scriplets to be entered into tags.
Download them here:
