Populating textfield with dynamic string, stop expression evaluation.

Hey All,

I've tried searching but either I dont' know what to search for, or it
simply hasn't been asked yet.

I have a textfield

<s:textfield required="true" label="My Field" name="myObject.name">

Works fine until the string gets returned with something like the following:

"${dont.evaluate}"

I want the textfield to actually contain this string, instead it is being
evaluated, and since the object doesn't exist in this context, whats being
populated is a blank string.

Any thoughts?

Shameless bump.

Any ideas?

I was mistaken... 

If you wanted to render the exact text of 
"${dont.evaluate}"
You'll have to do something closer to this:
<s:textfield value="%{'\"${dont.evaluate}\"'}" />
 
Basic point is, place the escaped dynamic string in single quotes.
