RE: using fmt:message with Tiles and Struts
Vince, You need to import the Tiles attribute before you reference it: tiles:importAttribute name=titleKey ignore=true / c:out value=${titleKey} / Thanks, Paul -Original Message- From: Fumo, Vince [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, March 25, 2005 2:11 PM To: 'user@struts.apache.org' Subject: using fmt:message with Tiles and Struts I am building a Struts Web application and I'm using Tiles for the first time.

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}???

RE: using fmt:message with Tiles and Struts
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.
