Yes, indeed my fear was correct. I needed the fully qualified name of the bundle.

The code below only gets the key name in ptrn variable. How do I get the value associated with the key? My fear is that this is correct, but the bundle tag isn't finding my application.properties file. <fmt:bundle basename="application"> <fmt:message key="ilt.time.format" var="ptrn"> <fmt:formatDate value="${schedule.startDate}" pattern="${ptrn}" timeZone="${Session.timeZone}"/> </fmt:message> </fmt:bundle> Thanks, Derrick
