Use the property attribute. <html:messages property="success" message="true"/>
Also take a look at the html-messages.jsp file that is part of the struts-exercise-taglib application that ships with Struts.

Here is what I have in my HTML: <html:messages id="success" message="true" /> And here is what is in my action file: ActionMessages messages = new ActionMessages(); messages.add("success", new ActionMessage("mdxquery.success")); saveMessages(_request, messages); where mxdquery.success in a value in my ApplicationResources.properties file.. I'm not sure about the id attribute. The API for ActionMessages.add says the first string is the property while the docs on the id attribute say it is the name scope of the JSP bean(??)...
