Kudos to Jeff for the solution. I had overlooked renaming the getter method from isSsnOnFile() to getSsnOnFile(). Little details will kill you every time. Even though I'm leaving it as a boolean, I still appreciate knowing why it bombed in the first place.
Thanks for the rest of the input, y'all. It is all helpful to a guy who is still pretty new at this stuff.

Did you keep a setter with the boolean type? I don't remember all of the details, but I don't think that the following is a valid bean property: public String getSsnOnFile() { return ssnOnFile ? "Y" : "N"; } public void setSsnOnFile(String ssnOnFileString) { ssnOnFile = "Y".equals(ssnOnFileString); } public void setSsnOnFile(boolean newSsnOnFile) { ssnOnFile = newSsnOnFile; } On Fri, 18 Mar 2005 08:14:06 -0700, Hyrum <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > I would still like to know what the root problem is here, the tag thing > aside.
