Hmmm, still no dice. Here is my Books.jspx:
<books
xmlns:jsp="http://java.sun.com/JSP/Page";
xmlns:c="http://java.sun.com/jsp/jstl/core";
>
<jsp:useBean id="bookDB" class="database.BookDB" scope="page" >
<jsp:setProperty name="bookDB" property="database" value="${bookDBAO}" />
</jsp:useBean>
<c:forEach var="book" begin="0" items="${bookDB.books}">
<book id="${book.bookId}" >
<surname>${book.surname}</surname>
<firstname>${book.firstName}</firstname>
<title>${book.title}</title>
<price>${book.price}</price>
<onSale>${book.onSale}</onSale>
<year>${book.year}</year>
<description>${book.description}</description>
<inventory>${book.inventory}</inventory>
</book>
</c:forEach>
</books>
Here is bookcatelog.jsp, the portion below only shows the table
generation, I have placed ${sale} in a cell just to see if I have access
but still nothing when I run the file. I believe I should see the string
'true' or 'false' next to the prices.
<x:forEach var="book" select="$applicationScope:booklist/books/*">
<tr>
<c:set var="bookId">
<x:out select="$book/@id"/>
</c:set>
<td bgcolor="#ffffaa">
<c:url var="url" value="/bookdetails" >
<c:param name="bookId" value="${bookId}" />
<c:param name="Clear" value="0" />
</c:url>
<a href="${url}"><strong><x:out
select="$book/title"/> </strong></a></td>
<td bgcolor="#ffffaa" rowspan=2>
<c:set var="price">
<x:out select="$book/price"/>
</c:set>
<c:set var="sale">
<x:out select="$book/@onSale"/>
</c:set>
<fmt:formatNumber value="${price}" type="currency"/> ${sale}
</td>
<td bgcolor="#ffffaa" rowspan=2>
<c:url var="url" value="/bookcatalog" >
<c:param name="Add" value="${bookId}" />
</c:url>
<p><strong><a href="${url}"> <fmt:message
key="CartAdd"/> </a></td></tr>
<tr>
<td bgcolor="#ffffff">
<fmt:message key="By"/> <em><x:out
select="$book/firstname"/> <x:out
select="$book/surname"/></em></td></tr>
</x:forEach>
</table>
</center>
Thanks again to all who can help.

Thank you BillyRay, nice to know I'm not going crazy! I was able to
do it using other tags in other projects but I through a lot of trial
and error I figured it was specific to the XML. I will try that later
tonight.
Best regards,

The Bookstore5 example maps the database to an xml document. If I
recall correctly, the "onSale" column is not mapped to an element --
you'll have to add it to books.jspx.
