From my experience working with human translators this might be a better approach. Translators like to be able to manipulate word order and punctuation. It is a little more code but I'll argue that it is not any less readable. Most importantly it works with Struts links and will properly encode the URL:
applicationResources.properties: message.benefits=The FedEx Custom Critical {0} enables ... mainPage.shippingLinkName=Shipping Toolkit
Put this at the top of the JSP:
<fmt:setBundle basename="com.nvisia.training.struts.resources.ApplicationResources"/>
<bean:define name="stLink" scope="page">
<html:link action="/shipping">
<bean:message key="mainPage.shippingLinkName"/>
</html:link>
</bean:define>
In the body of the jsp: <fmt:message key="message.benefits"> <param value="stLink"/> </fmt:message>
Regards, Evan.
Very elegant solution.
