Inserting scriptlet in HTML

[Darren Alexandria]

Good day!

I want to externalize the string or values of my JSP in a properties file.
I have this code from my applet tag

<param name="myApplet" value=<%Messages.getString("myJSP.value1");%>/>

I have imported the Messages class in my page, but still this does not
work. Is this not possible?

I have also tried this one but it doesn't work also.

 <param name="postURL" value=<%=Messages.getString("StripMapUpload.paramPostURL")%>/>   

Thanks.

It doesn't work" doesn't tell us anything at all that we can use to help you.

P.S. At this point in time you should be using the JSTL internationalization tags for this sort of thing rather than rolling your own with scriptlets.

What I meant by that is I followed the usual method of putting in scriptlets
in the HTML as what the tutorials have indicated. But just found out that not all of the time or in my present problem, this usual method doesn't apply.

Anyway, thanks for the advice I'll be looking now in the JSTL internationalization tags and try to implement it in my JSP.

Thanks again.
