    This is the code, basicly i want it to check the variable returned from getTitle and if it has nothin in it to print out 'Missing Title', its to work with a form and there will be more if statements for the other text fields but i cant get this to wor, i tried using syste.out.println but not sure if that only works on the console!?!?
    <td>
     <br>
    <%
    if (user.getTitle() == "")
    { %>Missing Title<% }
    %>
    </td>

    That should work - except that you should change the =="" to .equals("").

    '==' doesn't work for strings.

    you should really do a null check and an emptystring check
    though depending on the source of getTitle() maybe empty string is unpossible :D
