It is built-in to the properties file framework.
http://java.sun.com/docs/books/tutorial/i18n/intro/steps.html

I believe Struts will get the correct properties file based on the locale
set for each remote user.

Create files like:
application.properties
application_en_US.properties
application_fr_FR.properties
application_de_DE.properties

The first one is the default and all the rest should be selected
automatically depending on the remote user's locale.  I don't have an
Internationalization specification on my project so this is what I beilieve
to be true.

Someone else can verify.

In theory if you have a file called application_fr.properties in your
<appname>/WEB-INF/classes/resources directory then all the text will be 
replaced with French.
Based on the assumption that the browser is configured to French.
Therefore no coding is required.

However what happens if the browser is configured to spanish when you only 
have a file for French and English ?
Is there a default or will this an error  ?
