messages tag not displaying messages
The messages tag supposed to display all the messages automatically ?
When I place this on the JSP, the messages do not display:
<%@taglib prefix="html" uri="/struts-html"%>
<html:messages id="resultMsg" name="ATTR_ACTION_MESSAGES"/>
I know that the message key is correct, the message resource file can be
found, and the messages collection has been properly placed in the request,
etc. etc. because if I add (below that line) this tag:
<bean:write name="resultMsg"/>
to the page, then the message does display. But I shouldn't have to do
that, right ?
Since adding the bean:write tag does display a message from the collection,
this does not appear to be a basic setup issue. It's more a question about
the intended behavior of the messages tag.
Why doesn't this usage of the messages tag <html:messages id="resultMsg"
name="ATTR_ACTION_MESSAGES"/> automatically display all messages in the
collection ?

Frank,
I believe you want to use the <bean:messages ...../> tag. There isn't an
<html:messages> tag.

Frank,
Please disregard the last message. I wasn't paying attention and was
looking at the Struts 1.0 docs instead of Struts 1.1.
If you are using ActionMessages, then in your action, you'd have something
like this:
ActionMessages messages = new ActionMessages();
ActionMessage msg = new ActionMessage("data.ok");
messages.add("message1", msg);
msg = new ActionMessage("data.continue");
messages.add("message2", msg);
saveMessages(request, messages);
and in your JSP, to print out all of the messages, you would use this:
<html:messages id="msg" message="true">
<bean:write name="msg"/><br>
</html:messages>
The id param sets up the bean for the bean:write
The message param = true indicates that the bean will be obtained using
Globals.MESSAGE_KEY instead of Globals.ERROR_KEY
