I need to be able to take a parameter from my session and display it in a s:text tag.
I have a properties file that I am able to get static messages from with no problem. My assumption is that (like
Struts 1.x validation and
Java's printf command), that I should be able to use some type of escape characters that will allow me to imbed parameters in the messages. I suspect it would look something like the following example, where you would just need to supply some text to fill in the dates, assuming the session variables are strings.
In the
JSP, my assumption would be that I could use that message by adding s:param tags inside my s:text tag, like the following example.
The page would show something like this...
The sales event will be held from July 1st through July 5th.
I've tried adding the % sign and curly-braces, and not having them. I seem to get either nulls (even though I can display the dates I want on the page with a s:property tag), or either see the stuff shown here in the curly-braces showing up exactly as shown.
Any idea what is missing or wrong?
