Yes, the fmt library looks like the winner. It doesn't seem to pick up my key
from my resource file in the timeStyle attribute. How do I do that?
<fmt:timeZone value="Session.timeZoneID">
<fmt:formatDate value="${startDate}" type="time"
timeStyle="ilt.time.format"/>
</fmt:timeZone>
Thanks,
Derrick

I would probably recommend using the JSTL formatDate tag instead of any Struts
tag:
http://java.sun.com/products/jsp/jstl/1.1/docs/tlddocs/fmt/formatDate.html
You could probably also use bean:write with the "format" (or
"formatKey") attribute:
http://struts.apache.org/userGuide/struts-bean.html#write You would specify
the "format" as if you were using java.text.MessageFormat with your bean as the
single replacement argument to the format string.
