I am trying to display data from an ActionForm in a jsp page. I want to just write static text. This doesn't work:


But this does (with an html:form):


The bean:write doesn't throw any errors, it just doesn't display anything.
So confused...

My best guess would be that "dataSource" does not match exactly what you put in your struts-config.xml file as the form bean to be used by the action.

Do you have the following Entry in your struts-config.xml?

<action name="dataSoure" path="/myAction" ..>

In this case, "myAction" is whatever action is specified in your <html:form> tag.

Aha! That was it, thanks a ton!
