Description Frank Miceli 2002-12-10 19:42:17 UTC 
The text tag:
<input:text name="text" default="default text" bean="myBean" /> 

always generates the default text, even when a value is present in the value 
bean:

<input type="text" name="text" value="text from bean" value="default text" />

The default value should be suppressed when the field has data.

Good spotting, that's fixed and committed to CVS - so should be available for 
download after the nightly build.

The bug affected the Text, Password and TextArea tags.

I am finding the same problem. I download the lastest version from nightly
builds but the problem continues.
Here is my code:

<jsp:useBean id="user" class="the.complete.class.Name"/>
...
<input:form bean="user" action="/action" method="post">
...
   <input:text name="name" default="Type the user name"/>
...
</input:form>
Comment 3 Karl von Randow 2004-10-26 23:05:12 UTC 
I can't reproduce this bug in the latest copy of the input taglib. Perhaps 
this was a problem related to the lack of a release() method previously. 
Please download the latest input taglib and try again.

If the problem is reproduced, please submit the generated HTML as well.
