In your action class, you set the message like this

ActionMessages messages = new ActionMessages();    
messages.add("statusMessage", new ActionMessage("message.key"));
saveMessages(request.getSession(), messages);
// you can save it to request too if you don't need to the message to appear in subsequence page
// saveMessages(request, messages);

where "message.key" is one of the property key in the Application Resource file.


In the JSP

<logic:messagesPresent message="true">
   <html:messages id="message" message="true" property="statusMessage">
      <bean:write name="message"/>
   </html:messages>
</logic:messagesPresent>

ok byam, very thanks, i didn't know that the method saveMessages(HttpSession,ActionMessages) it existed, it's version 1.2 of Struts and i use 1.1, i'll have to change the version.

Very thanks
