Can you paste the JSP code. It seems to be as if some tag lib is missing.

Please find the jsp code

Can I assume that you have struts-html.tld in WEB-INF/tlds folder.

C Kushtawar please take time to Carefully Choose One Forum when you start a topic. The Web Services forum is not a place to ask a Struts question...

The taglib directive as given in my book (Struts - Complete Reference 2nd Edition page 13) is

You don't need to put the tld files manually in WEB-INF folder, the container searches for the tlds inside jar files...

Ankit I am talking about the line of code which is being used in JSP.

<%@ taglib uri="/WEB-INF/tlds/struts-html.tld" prefix="html" %>

Either this need to be changed or use global URL(better option).

Yes I know, I was pointing out that the code that kushtawar is using is not given in the book. And the URI he is using, will work if he takes the tld file from the struts jar file and put it in the /WEB-INF/tlds folder, which is not needed in new containers, so if he is not using an old container, then he doesn't needs to do this. I'm not sure what the URI used in struts 1.x for HTML tags is, so I just gave the code (taglib directive) given in the book, it should work...
