RE: Application Resources Question

[Ciaran Hanley]

Thanks for your reply.

I'm using struts 1.1. I'm retrieving the values through an action class. The
option value is passed from a jsp and the class looks up the corresponding
resource.

For example somePage.jsp?q=info will look up the help.info resource in the
ActionClass

ActionMessages messages = new ActionMessages();
String helpOutput = "help." + option;
messages.add(ActionMessages.GLOBAL_MESSAGE, new ActionMessage(helpOutput));
saveMessages(request,messages);

Can it be done this way so that the html is in the properties file still
works when displayed on the resulting jsp?

Thanks

I just tried this, and the <br> get rendered properly and I get linebreaks.

What version of Struts are you using?  What code is in your JSP to display 
the message resource?
