Problem with tutorial
I am new to struts and going through the
http://struts.apache.org/release/2.3.x/docs/using-struts-2-tags.html
tutorial. I have a problem where a var is not expanded.
Ex:
<s:url action="hello" var="helloLink">
<s:param name="userName">Bruce Phillips</s:param>
</s:url>
<a href="${helloLink}">Hello Bruce Phillips</a>
Normally, when hovering the produced link I should see:
http://localhost:8080/basic_struts/hello.action?userName=Bruce+Phillips
What I see is: http://localhost:8080/basic_struts/$%7B helloLink%7D
As you can see, the var is not expanded and the server returns the href as
is, instead of expanding it to the action="hello" url specification.
I run Tomcat 7, with struts 2.3.15.3.
Some suggested to use ELIgnored="false" and isELIgnored="false" in the Page
directive, but those attributes are not regocnized (Eclipse draws yellow
doodles under it ).
Thank you,
Michel

Does *any* EL work? What's your web.xml app (servlet spec) version?

Hence the web.xml/EL question.

Thank you Bruce (the very Bruce Phillips from the example :-)), it turned
out the web.xml file generated by Eclipse was the problem. When I replaced
it with the one from your example, it worked like a charm!

Michel:
Are you using the tutorial code provided at
https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/struts/sandbox/trunk/struts2examples or are
you coding the example yourself?
If you are coding the example yourself you may want to compare your code
and files to the example code checked out from the subversion repository
above.
I just checked that the example code for the using tags tutorial works
correctly under Tomcat 7.
