Here are the details: My jsp is iterating over a list of Beans. Each bean contains a Map of key/value pairs <both Strings>, and a property that reflects the item chosen previously from the Map <the key>. On my "list" page, I want to display the values that correspond to the keys selected.
Here is my iterator, which I understand makes available each bean to the root of OGNL. I can display employeeId or employees, so they are each clearly visible. So why does this syntax not display the value for the key? <s:iterator value="#request.list"> <s:property value="employees[employeeId]" /> P.S. This seems so elementary!
