Hm... I've been trying to avoid using the logic tags (as per struts documentation). Could I do something like this: <c:if test="${!empty userMessages}">
Melissa said: I do it this way as well, but I use ActionMessages to store the specific message, and have the tags to display it in a base jsp that is used by all my forms via tiles. So, in my BaseLayout.jsp, I have this that shows messages that aren't errors at the top of the page: <logic:present name="userMessages" scope="request"> <span class="messageText"> <html:messages name="userMessages" id="userMessages"> <bean:write name="dotMessages" /><br /> </html:messages> </span> </logic:present> In an action, I can then do this: ActionMessages messages = new ActionMessages(); messages.add("formUpdated", new ActionMessage("form.updated", "Form Name")); saveMessages("userMessages", request, messages); --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
