Well, as normal, I have once again ran into a new snag while building my app.
Up until today, I have pulled out my form-param values in my jsp like so into a textfield.
<html:text property="email" size="30" maxlength="50" />
And this is great if you want to display it in a text field. But how can I just display it in html. I have some fields that I just want to show, as uneditable, so therefore just html. The values are in the form-bean, but I cannot figure out which tag to use for this mission.
You might want to look at some of the tons of struts examples that are out there. This is such a common thing that all the examples will show it. (Not that it's a bad question, just that a quick look at any of the struts examples will show displaying properties).
To answer your question there are several ways...
Using struts tags: <bean:write property="userBean.someField"/>
JSTL (prefered over bean:write):
<c:out value="${userBean.someField}"/>JSP2.O:
${userBean.someField}Preferred consesus is to use JSTL approach.
Should I just start using <jsp:useBean?
You shouldn't need to if your bean is already in scope, which it should be since you should set into scope in your Action class (or if it's a form bean it will automatically be in scope).
