You can right-click on this project and go to Debug As or Run As then select

Why would you try to use the tag libraries from 1.3 in a 1.1 app?! Why would you use 1.1 at all, for that matter?

What Struts lib(s) are you deploying, and where are they located in your app hierarchy?

If you settle for what they are giving you, you deserve what you get. Fight for this tiny ad!
