Re: Localisation
You could set a group of forwards up, based on the locale ie
<forward name="this_en" path="/jsp_pages/out_en-jsp" redirect="true"/>
<forward name="this_de" path="/jsp_pages/out_de-jsp" redirect="true"/>
<forward name="this_ko" path="/jsp_pages/out_ko-jsp" redirect="true"/>
within <action/>
And you can then dynamically create the name from the selected action by the
client.
Or, better still, you could create a generic jsp, which calls all text by
tagged resources, and have a collection of resources for that page with all
the differing languages in. Allowing for easier updating of the page and
page content.
I use xslt, so I can't give you a jsp example, but there are some examples
of this in Programming Jakata Strus and a few on the web.

In my opinion the message solution works and this solution is messy.

Good question. Something I have not come up against yet. But what you
could do is have the language buttons go via an action class that will
rebuild the page for the new language, which means that the entered info
will still be in the request in the formBean you are filling (could cause
problems if the bean is validated, as *I think* that the validation will
occur when the new request for language change happens. You'll have to
check this out), you then just extract it and repopulate the page with this
aswell as the change of language. Off the top of my head I wouldn't know
how to code this, but when the good old US wakes up I expect help will be
plentyfull ;-)

i'm not sure at the moment our current ' work around' is to only display the
flags on the 'home' page which can be accessed via the menu. This way no
data entry is lost..
but i would prefer a way of doing it from any page and returning to the same
page, preferably with no data entry loss (or validation)..

Does this mean that someone has to implement a different .jsp for each
language? I need to implement something similar and I'm not sure that I
understand the answer. Don't you use the <bean:message> to display text in
different languages? I'm I missing something here?

This assumes that you want to write a new page for each locale. Is that
true? Why not use messages?
