Re: tag doesn't recognize Struts dataBean property'svalue

[Geeta Ramani <ge...@cmpco.com>]

Jumping in here.. yes, I think you need to trim() before you check.  Also, if
that too doesn't work, can you check for something "positive" (like if
"ShopOrderExist" is equals to "false" rather than "ShopOrderExist" is not equals
to "not exists"..?).

Another thought, try to get this to work just using oridinary jsp tags and java
code (<% java code here %>) and see oif things work. Than you can narrow the
problem down to tag issues..

Good luck!
