C, You can't nest tags as you did in the value attribute. <bean:define ... value="<bean:write name="author"/>" />
The rest of the list will croak when I recommend that you use <%= author %> instead of <bean:write name="author"/> Maybe they can tell you a fancy -el/JSTL way to do it. :) B -----Original Message----- From: Caroline Jen [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, December 17, 2003 4:46 PM To: Struts Users Mailing List Subject: Re: Please Help With This Error Message Hi, I tried and tried. I cannot figure out the error. I need your sharp eyes and experience. I keep getting this error message in the browser: ServletException in:/article/content/postForm.jsp] /article/content/postForm.jsp(32,67) equal symbol expected' This postForm.jsp had worked find before I inserted: <bean:define id="author" name="cr" scope="session" type="java.lang.String"/> <html:text property="creator" value="<bean:write name="author"/>" size="82" maxlength="25" tabindex="1"/> And the error message points at the <bean:define ...> tag. The statements are in ONE line (they do not wrapped around) in my file. "cr" is passed to the postForm.jsp in a session object this way: <c:set var="cr" value="${articleForm.creator}" scope="session"/> Thanks a lot. -C --- Firat TIRYAKI <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > maybe you don't have a space character between > "creator" and scope... try to > write the tag in one line, not multiple lines. > > F. > > ----- Original Message ----- > From: "fredatwork" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > To: "'Struts Users Mailing List'" > <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Sent: Wednesday, December 17, 2003 8:53 AM > Subject: RE: Please Help With This Error Message > > > Your statement is OK.
