    Hi. I'm a complete n00b with WebObjects/WOLips/Wonder. I feel pretty dumb because my code wont work, and its such a basic bit. I'm really hoping someone can help me out emoticon_smile. I can't get
     <wo:str value ="$myTextForDisplay" />

    to work. My error is:

    Application: TestWO
    Error: com.webobjects.appserver.parser.woml.WOMLTemplateParserException exception
    Reason:
    com.webobjects.appserver.parser.woml.WOMLTemplateParserException: Main: 8:2: wo:str {null={value=$myTextForDisplay}} has no WOElement

    ...(the above error is from the web page)... I am getting frustrated such a simple first step seems out of my reach as I want to use this apple/nextstep/wonder stuff. I do !!! But already I feel i want to give up and go use something easier..Prob cos its now 3:21 am :/ I'm confused if i even have my installation done properly :/ Anyway, I found some post online that i didn't quite understand that spoke of inline bindings for something with WOOgnl.frameworks. I don't get any "warnings" in my Eclipse IDE, so i guessed all is linked ok? Maybe not.. A post said to replace "$myValue" with "[myValue]", but that didn't  help. Am i not linked to the WOOgnl stuff? emoticon_unhappy. Im really not sure how to fix that - i tried to follow the instructions. Also, I tried the Golips... it didn't work so had to go the long way installing (Golips seemed to work, but it just made a folder with nothing inside it... weird). ANy help would be awesome guys, thanks ! Paul. Im using OSX 10.7.5.

      Hi Paul,

      You might need to add the WOOgnl framework to the build path of your project. Did you install the Project Wonder frameworks on your machine?

    Hi Pascal

    I did install wonder frameworks but I think there's problems with how I linked stuff. And prob with my build paths as you say. I also had a problem in the tutorial for adding a framework and using ant to compile... it said "WOlips framework doesn't exist" so clearly ive got the paths wrong? I'm trying to work out what the issue is... i downloaded the wonder code using instructions from here. Im confused as to where things "should" go... I also had a try of doing the ant-build on WOOgnl to see what would happen - it fails also but its a massive trace, complaining about lots of things - looks like i am missing lots of stuff i.e. "package org.apache.commons.lang does not exist", and "package er.extensions.appserver does not exist".. I have all the WOOgnl and WOLips frameworks listed as included libraries for the project in properties..
