Problem with internationalization/locale

[Sam Cyrus <ha...@yahoo.com>]

Hi, 

I try to follow the Struts2 tutorial and I run with Java1.6 on Tomcat6. I've had a pair of issues. The recent one is with internationalization using locales. For my Register.java action, I have two properties files Register.properties and Register_es.properties for the default English and Spanish respectively, each containing the labels for the chosen local language. 

In my index.jsp, I have two links defined for each locale, as follows. But clicking on the Spanish one reads from the English properties and the labels are therefore in English anyway. Even when I deleted the English alternative, it continued to show in English. I cleaned the cache in Firefox, cleared the contain of the English Register.properties and deleted the application map in Tomcat, (I even manually deleted the war file from my project in Eclipse before rebuilding with Ant) but no change: 

<s:url action="registerInput" var="registerInputLink" >
 <s:param name="request_locale">en</s:param>
</s:url>
<p><a href="${registerInputLink}">Please register</a> for our prize drawing.</p>

<h3>Registro español</h3>
<s:url action="registerInput" var="registerInputLinkES">
    <s:param name="request_locale">es</s:param>
</s:url>
<p><a href="${registerInputLinkES}">Por favor, regístrese</a> para nuestro sorteo</p>

Best regards
