I say mostly, because so many times I've been bitten in the butt by this and I'm not sure why it works this way but... for some reason I often can't just use the scriplet: <%= to force a String conversion, when inside of a tag. I forget I have to do: <% String.valueOf( ) %>. So in the above I think I tried something like you mentioned but then realized it only works for me when I do: value="<% String.valueOf( ((java.util.Map.Entry)element).getKey() ) %>" Appreciate you coming up with the solution. I was pulling my hair out over this. -- Rick mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> For additional commands, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
