Re: format string with bean:write

[Brett Connor]

bean:write has a format property. I haven't seen any documentation on 
what the format syntax is, but there's every chance it supports 
something along the lines of
AAAAAAAAAAAA.
Alternatively, create a derived property on your form bean and reference 
that, eg

class MyForm extends ActionForm {
 String getPropertyA() {
   return this.propertyA;
 }
 String getPropertyATwelve() {
   return this.propertyA.substring(0, 12);
 }
 ...

I'm trying to only print the first TWELVE characters in a string with 
the tag <bean:write>, but i don't want to format the value inside the 
string, just the output,  how do i format the string to only show 12 
characters using the tag?
