Struts, How to get at bean properties

[Dave]

I think this is a simple struts question....

I want to display information on a page in a static way. That is, not
as part of text elements. I can't find an appropriate struts tag to
use.

This what I did find. The form bean will be named the same as the
"name" attribute of the <form-bean> element in the struts-config.xml.

So if I have a form bean with 2 string properties, such as str1 and
str2, I can get the values on my jsp this way:

<jsp:useBean
id="DataForm"
scope="session"
type="com.mycompany.DataForm" />
...
<p>Str1 : <%=DataForm.getStr1()%></p>
<p>Str2 : <%=DataForm.getStr2()%></p>

But that doesn't seem like the right way to do this. I expected some
kind of special tag that I'll call "getprop":

<p>Str1 : <html:getprop property="str1"></p>
<p>Str2 : <html:getprop property="str2"></p>

What is the right way to do this?

Then post it to a java group.
javascript != java.

Try comp.lang.java.programmer over that way. ==>
