struts2 nest text tag with property tag in jsp

I have been researching this online for a long while with no luck so I decide to ask.

In my application, the action class generates a value, which I can display through the 

s:property
tag without a problem. However, since that string also has to be translated to other languages, I want to use that property value as the key for the

s:text
tag.

Obviously, 

<s:text name="<s:property value="variable"/>"/>

doesn't work.

How can I do this without first translating it in the action class? I can do this within the java action class, but I want this to be done in the jsp because I want to preserve the variable. It has some signifance in some other javascript function.

it is very easy. If your action class extends ActionSupport, you can always do this in your jsp file.

<s:property value="getText('your.key')"/>

your.key should be saved in your struts2 language.properties file

EDIT

If you are using a dynamic string, you should replace your.key with an action property.

<s:property value="getText(yourProperty)"/>
