Another option for Struts localisation is to embed your language specific strings typically with key="string" defined within your ApplicationResources_language_country.Properties file struts-config.xml will reference <message-resources> for key-based tag or <param-value> (initialisation param) for your servlet for ApplicationResources (properties) file When these elements are configured properly in struts-config.xml then your bean-write will work with <html-messages>
Take a look at this excellent tutorial located at

What you can do is have a jsp for each locale language such as
page_fr.jsp and page_en.jsp.

Your application can store the locale in the user's session object.
Your application can update the session locale when the user switches
between en & fr.

You can have the following forwards for the action in the struts-config.xml:
<forward name="en" path="/WEB-INF/page_en.jsp">
</forward>
<forward name="fr" path="/WEB-INF/page_fr.jsp">
</forward>

In your ActionForm you can:
return mapping.findForward(get the locale language from the session);

Hello, all!

I just wonder if there is an existing (tested, prooved) way (a kind of
development pattern) for Struts to make internationalization not by
message resources but by pages (JSPs, templates)?

The point is that using message resources deleloper can only define a
string value for different locales. For example for "en" welcome=aaa
for "fr" welcome=bbb, and you include it like <title><out
"welcome"></title>. This produces "<title>aaa</title>" for "en" and
"<title>bbb</title>" for "fr".

That makes you limited to localizing only strings, but not the format.
E.G. I would like to output "<title>aaa</title>" for "en" and
"<h1>bbb</h1>" for "fr". And this not the matter of defining this
strings (<h1>bbb</h1>) in message bundles, but I would like to use
separate JSPs for "en" and "fr" and that is the point. I would like have
two jsp files: page1.en.jsp with content of "<title>aaa</title>" and
page1.fr.jsp with "<h1>bbb</h1>". (P.S. this reduces much (maybe even
terminates) the mess with message bundles).


Please write all your suggestions and thoughts.
