Struts2-jQuery Plugin

[Abhilash Chander]

Hi All, I'm trying to use Struts2 jQuery plugin 1.8.3 but evertime I run it I get some kind of a Freemaker template error like this one:

  

Error reading included file template/simple/css.ftl
The problematic instruction:
----------
==> include "/${parameters.templateDir}/simple/css.ftl" [on line 40, column 1 in template/jquery/select.ftl]
----------

Java backtrace for programmers:
----------

Hi Abhilash Chander,

Do I have to use Freemaker to use Struts2-Jquery plugin

No. It comes with jar so no need to add/use explicitly , untill unless you add your custom theme.

Try to run the code after commenting <sj:submit> tag... And let us know the result...
