JSTL attempt in JSP

teser3 · May 19, 2009

I am trying to get my first JSTL to work in Tomcat 6.0.18. I have EL
working.
I assume I have to use JSTL 1.2 for Tomcat 6.0.18?

I put the jar files (standard and jstl) in WEB-INF/lib and tried this
and do not get any JSTL output:
<%@ taglib uri="http://java.sun.com/jstl/core" prefix="c" %>
<html>
<head>
<title>Count to 10 Example (using JSTL)</title>
</head>

<body>
<c:forEach var="i" begin="1" end="10" step="1">
<c

ut value="${i}" />

<br />
</c:forEach>
</body>
</html>

Please advise.

You should.

Use:

<html>
<head>
<title>Count to 10 Example (using JSTL)</title>
</head>

<body>
<c:forEach var="i" begin="1" end="10" step="1">
<cut value="${i}" />

Or just:

${i}

when using JSP 2.0.

<br />
</c:forEach>
</body>
</html>

It doesn't make a difference in this particular example, but <c

ut> is
still very useful for escaping HTML special chars.

I find hiding in a comment usually works. If you're really quiet, they
don't notice you.

So c

ut do escape while pure EL does not?

Interesting!
