conditional tags not working - struts2

[Rohit Rai]

Hi,
I have set the following variables as shown below.

    
              <s:set name="idValue" value="projectId" />
              <s:set name="refIdValue" value="ref_mgeme_id" />

Now i am trying to compare it using the following:

<s:if test="%{#idValue==#refIdValue}">
    //statement 1
</s:if>
    //statement 2<s:else>
</s:else>

but it always goes to the wrong part i.e. the else part .

Hi,

try simple this

      <s:if test="#idValue==#refIdValue">  
        //statement 1  
    </s:if>  
<s:else>  
//statement 2
   </s:else>

Are they the same type?

Hi,

Thank you very much for the above responses. Actually my fault. I was setting some wrong values in the action class itself.

I tend to be careless at times

Thanks a lot,
Rohit
