Problem using <s:if tag of Struts2

[Abdul Mujeeb Md]

Hi,

I am trying to use <s:if> tag, but it doesn't work.

<s:iterator var="arlConsigneeInfo" value="alUltimateConsignee" status="row">
	<s:set name="statusUConsignee" ><s:property value="%{#arlConsigneeInfo[3]}"/> </s:set>
	<s:property value="statusUConsignee"/>
		<s:if test="%{statusUConsignee!='D'}">
			Inside If
		</s:if>
	</s:property>
</s:iterator> 

<s:property value="statusUConsignee"/>

prints me, a value 'D'

In this case the If condition has to fail and the "Inside If" should not be printed. But the code evaluates the condition successfully and prints "Inside If".

Where am I making a mistake?

Thanks.

Thanks for your reply David. It still doesn't work.

That's not enough information to help solve your issue. I'd need current code, the types of the data you're comparing, etc. The <s:if> tag works fine if given appropriate comparisons.

Hi David,

alUltimateConsignee

is a ArrayList containing a String Array.

String[] strData = new String[4];
strData[0] = "xxx";
strData[1] = "yyy";
strData[2] = "zzz";
strData[3] = "D";

setAlUltimateConsignee(strData);

Now I pass access this value in the jsp to evaluate the condition for the value of strData[3] which is "D". It causes the problem.

Hope I have provided you with sufficient information.

Thanks.

Try using the "#" notation inside the if tag.
