Well, you are right, SimpleMessage uses MessageFormat and thus will print Foo''s as Foo's. But you are not using SimpleMessage here! You are using the fmt:message tag, which is part of the JSTL and is not related to SimpleMessage (nor Stripes, in fact). So, indeed you'll need to espace ' with '' for Stripes information and error messages. But fmt:message does not use MessageFormat unless you specify parameters with nested fmt:param. Hope that helps.
