bean:message inside onclick javascript string?
I have a webpage on which I do a Javascript popup to confirm a deletion.
The JSP fragment looks like this:
<html:submit property="command" value="Delete"
onclick="return confirm('Are you sure you want to delete this
paragraph permanently?')"/>
I would dearly love to replace that fixed text with <bean:message
key="confirm.paragraph.delete"/>, but all my experimentation has not
succeeded in finding a relatively straightforward way to do this. I'm
using the -el taglibs, if that matters. Anybody have ideas on an
elegant solution?

For actionforms you should make them all strings. Certainly anything that
allows for text entry in the UI should be made a string even if it is
intended for numeric input. (For checkboxes and such like its less important
though Id still recommend using strings for them)
This allows you to return the user to the form when validation fails with
the input they entered preserved - so if they type "One" instead of "1" the
bad value will be preserved for them to correct on return to the page.
If they type text into a field whose actionform property is numeric you can
have problems handling it. I cant remember if it causes an exception or is
just converted implicitly to the value 0 - but either way its a problem...

Hi, dear all, very new to Struts. Just a simple question:
As a best practice of Struts, should I declare formebeans'
properties all as String, or the "actual" type (such as BigDecimal,
int, float, and double etc.)
Thanks,

Try move the onclick javascript function out, something like this:
<script language="javascript">
function verify() {
var msg = "<beam:message key="confirm.paragraph.delete" />";
return confirm(msg);
}
</script>
<html:submit property="command" value="Delete"
onclick="return verify();"/>
