[patwary rao <pa...@yahoo.com>]

Hi all,

property to the custom tag.basically i want to display
static text instead of text box if the user has read
only ability to the page else show him text box.user 
role is checked in the custom tag surrounding the text
box . i want to implement the same logic for all the
html elements like drop down list ,check box etc.

I'm not sure what you mean by 'send form bean property to the custom 
tag' but I think what you're asking for is a way to display either 
un-editable text or a text box conditionally according to the user's 
role. The Struts HTML tags don't support this directly, but you can 
easily wrap them with a role check, something like (untested):

   <logic:present role="CanEdit">
     <html:text property="..." .../>
   </logic:present>
   <logic:notPresent role="CanEdit">
     <bean:write property="..."/>
   </logic:notPresent>

HTH,
