Difficulty getting html:message tag to work.

[Matt & Toni Willis <mw...@tampabay.rr.com>]

Hi,
 
I'm using Struts 1.1, and am attempting to utilize the new
ActionMessages class with the <html:message> tag.
 
I have the following code in my Action class:
 
actionMessages.add("message", new
ActionMessage("error.systemAuthentication.failure"));
                  saveMessages(request, actionMessages);
 
 
 
With the corresponding tags in my jsp:
 
<logic:messagesPresent>
<html:messages id="message" message="true"></html:messages>
</logic:messagesPresent>
 
 
No message is being rendered in the html page though.
 
I think I'm definitely misunderstanding the concept behing both
ActionMessages and htmL:message.
 
 
Thanks in advance:
 
Matt
