any appreciated.

jsp code scriptlets :

<html:select property="locale" onchange="refreshandsetvalues(this.value)">                <% locale availablelanguages[] = daofactory.getconfigurationdao().getavailablelanguages();                   (int i=0; i<availablelanguages.length; i++) {                       string localenamekey = "com.web.gui.localename." + availablelanguages[i].tostring(); %>                       <html:option value="<%= availablelanguages[i].tostring() %>"                             key="<%= localenamekey %>"/>                <% }%>               </html:select> 

scriptlet code read properties file , parse strings successfully.

properties file

com.web.ui.locale=language com.web.ui.localename.en_us=english com.web.ui.localename.fr_ca=français (canada) com.web.ui.localename.fr_ca.decoded,français (canada) com.web.ui.localename.fr_fr=français (france), com.web.ui.localename.nl_nl=nederlands com.web.ui.localename.es_419=español (américa latina) com.web.ui.localename.es_es=español (castellano) com.web.ui.localename.de_de=deutsch 

well, problem right there in properties file:

com.web.ui.localename.fr_ca=français (canada) 

compared to:

com.web.ui.localename.fr_fr=français (france), 

since have escape in file, , jsp escapes escape, should remove escape , copy word france line.
