Freemarker considers null references errors. When
myActionProperty.subProperty is referenced in the Struts tag, it is
printed regardless of its value. However, when Freemarker encounters
${myActionProperty.subProperty}, it will give you an error if
subProperty is null. When trying to print Freemarker variables using
the $ or # syntax, you should probably do an if check like this:
<# if myActionProperty.subProperty?exists>
${myActionProperty.subProperty}
</#if>
I know, it's a bit of a pain.
