[jira] Created: (WW-2344) In regards to formatting attributes when displayiing them in presentation layer.

In regards to formatting attributes when displayiing them in presentation layer.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: WW-2344
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/struts/browse/WW-2344
             Project: Struts 2
          Issue Type: Improvement
            Reporter: Richard Burton
            Priority: Minor


Currently in Struts 2.x, there isn't a standard way of displaying formatted values in the presentation layer. On some of my projects, I use a mixture of solutions in order to address this problem. This improvement would make using Struts easier on the developer since there will be a standard solution.

One suggestion to improve this area would be to add an additional attribute to the tags like <s:property/>. The additional attribute could be the name of a formatter that will convert and format attributes. I also encounter business requirements also call for formatting a single attribute multiple ways in a single page, and this solution will also address this need.


Best Regards,
Richard L. Burton III
