Attribute display

[vwvbc]

I know how to handle this in JSTL, but get stuck in Seam. Here is my issue:

In my message properties file, I have some like

gender.f= Female
gender.m= Male

The gender attribute of my user class store the gender information as f or m.

How I display the gender in UI(xhtml in this case)?

#{messages['gender.'] and ... ?

I have tried a few times without a luck.

Try

#{messages['gender.'foo.gender]}

I can't remember if it works.
