Hi,in wrote a custom action where, from the relative jsp dialog, I accept some text fields. At the end of the action I need to send an email using a custom template (.ftl) and I would pass the input fields (entered on the dialog) to the custom template so these fields "end up" in the email body.I'm

so:
this is the piece of code for the form data (that is my dialog "travel-select.jsp"):


……
      <td width="85%">
         </f:verbatim>
         <h:inputTextarea id="travel-destination" value="#{DialogManager.bean.travel-destination}" rows="4" cols="75" required="true" 
                      onkeyup="javascript:checkButtonState();" onchange="javascript:checkButtonState();" />
         <f:verbatim>
      </td>
……….
‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍

where travel-destination is the field that I would add into the email body
and this is the piece of FreeMarker code for email template:


……….
The travel destination you selected is as follows: ${travel-destination}.
……….
‍‍‍‍‍

At runtime I get this error:


A system error happened during the operation: 00140004 Error during processing of the template 'Expression travel-destinationis undefined on line 3, column 16 in workspace://SpacesStore/4374c30e-39e8-4d20-bacf-5856f30e9cb4.'. Please contact your system administrator.

(note: workspace://SpacesStore/4374c30e-39e8-4d20-bacf-5856f30e9cb4 is the custom email template).

Where I went wrong? I forgot something else?
Thanks
