Specifically for the <bean:message> tag, the message resource is either the bundle attribute (or Globals.MESSAGES_KEY if none specified), searched in this order: 1) Page scope 2) Request scope 3) Struts Module "scope" 4) Application scope You may define message resources in (3) and (4) via the struts configs.
Look at http://struts.apache.org/userGuide/struts-bean.html (more generically, struts-*.html where * is the struts taglib prefix) Finally, for the bean and logic struts taglibs, here is a note from the struts team: "Note: - Some of the features in this taglib are also available in the JavaServer Pages Standard Tag Library (JSTL). The Struts team encourages the use of the standard tags over the Struts specific tags when possible."
