Good point but that is the intended behavior. Good is a composite bean that holds the good itself and other stuff hence the description another level deep as in item[0].getGood().getDescription() as you pointed out correctly. I tried your suggestion anyhow with the same result. I also tried to render one atomic field only from item as in: <bean:write name="item" property="sku" /> with same resulting exception. I can't figure out why 'item' is out of scope

It looks like the problem is in your propery attribute. property="good.description" is equivalent to calling item[0].getGood().getDescription(). Try just property="description". -----Original Message----- From: Emmanuel Bridonneau [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Thursday, April 25, 2002 12:06 PM To: 'Struts Users Mailing List' (E-mail) Subject: puzzled with id hi all, Like all developers, I am trying to figure out why things aren't happening. my jsp uses an iterate tag. <logic:iterate id="item" name="submitForm" property="goods"> <td valign="top"><b>good description:<bean:write name="item" property="good.description"/></b> </logic:iterate> I assume "item" is a local variable constructed to hold elements from the java.util.List goods from the form in scope. So I suppose, it oculd be anything. However, when trying to render its properties, I get an error even when specifying its type: javax.servlet.ServletException: Cannot find bean item in scope null at org.apache.jasper.runtime.PageContextImpl.handlePageException(PageContex tImpl.java:457) On the other hand, this java code works fine: <% SubmitForm myform = (SubmitForm)(request.getAttribute("submitForm")); java.util.List goods = myform.getGoods(); PABean pabb = (PABean)(goods.get(0)); out.print("good description = "+pabb.getDescription()); %> Are there extra steps I am missing?
