Description

The placeholder field fot s:textfield and s:password should evaluate ognl expressions. Namely resource key replacements.
e.g

<s:textfield theme="simple" placeholder="%

{getText('placeHolder.Username')}

" id="j_username" name="j_username" cssStyle="width:180px" />

This is an issue for HTML5.
I think Lukasz Lenart suggested making all attributes dynamic.

AbstractUITag, line 294

public void setDynamicAttribute(String uri, String localName,
Object value) throws JspException

{ dynamicAttributes.put(localName, value); }

and replace with

public void setDynamicAttribute(String uri, String localName,
Object value) throws JspException

{ dynamicAttributes.put(localName, findString(value)); }
