Nevermind. As it turns out, it works with a nested <c:out> tag, but not inline. I'm pretty sure this has something to do with the way struts exposes variables vs. the way JSTL does it.

Using Struts 1.2.9, Tomcat 4, <fmt-rt:number> tag as such: <fmt-rt:formatNumber value="${result.avgPoints}" pattern="#.##"/> Getting "In <formatNumber>, value attribute can not be parsed into java.lang.Number: "${result.avgPoints}" "avgPoints" is a Float in the object. Any ideas?
