Well, the value you store in the actual field would have to be "priority.low", "priority.normal", or "priority.hi" instead of "normal, high, or low. Then you can simply use the bean:message instead of bean:write. The bean:message tag will treat the property= as the "key" in to the resource bundle. Alternatively you can prepend "priority." to the value of your data and then pass that to the message tag, as in:
<bean:define id="priority" name="bean" property="priority"/> <bean:message name="<%="priority." + priority"/> For example... ------------- -AP_ See my profile at http://www.myprofiles.com/member/view.do?profileId=128 -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Saturday, January 26, 2002 5:21 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: I18N question Hi! In my application I have an enumeration called priority containg values "low", "normal" and "high". At one point of the application the user can enter the priority using a selection list. Localizing here works fine like this: <html:select property="priority"><html:option value="low" key="priority.low"/><html:option value="normal" key="priority.normal"/><html:option value="high" key="priority.high"/></html:select></td> using a property file looking like this: priority.low=Niedrig priority.normal=Mittel priority.high=Hoch Like I said, this works perfectly well. But at another point of the application the choosen priority should be displayed. A simple <bean:write name="bean" property="priority"/> would display the not localized values "low", "normal" or "high", but ofcourse I would like to have the localized strings "Niedrig", "Mittel", or "Hoch" to be shown... Any clues ? thanks, Gernot. --------------------------------------------- Kabelsignal AG Webmail http://www.kabelsignal.at -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> For additional commands, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> For additional commands, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
