Custom tags and <jsp:plugin> / <jsp:param>

[Raymond DeCampo]

Hello,

I would like to use the output of a custom JSP tag as the value of an
applet parameter. That is, I would like to do something like the following:

<jsplugin ...>
<jsparams>
<jsparam name="param1" value="<ctl:value key="key1" />" />
</jsparams>
</jsplugin>

However, it appears that one is not allowed to imbed calls to custom
tags within the <jsparam> tag. Based on what I could read from the
spec, this appears to be the standard. So for the moment I am forced to
use the old <APPLET> and <PARAM> tags and use the HTMLConverter from Sun.

I would like a solution that satisfies the following:

1) Use the <jsplugin> tag to avoid the use of HTMLConverter.
2) Does not use scriptlets (i.e. <% %>). Custom tags are allowed.

If anyone has an idea on how this might be accomplished, I would
appreciate hearing about it.

Thanks,
Ray
