Curly brackets franco.. but we're getting a bit off topic for a jsp list.
if (blah)
//do stuff
else
//do other stuff
this will work only if there is one and only one statement after the "if"
and the "else"
if there are to be more than one statement then the code must be placed in a
code block via the infamous curly brackets
eg
if(blah){
//do stuff
// do more stuff
}else{
//do other stuff
//do more other stuff
}
check out the sun java tutorial for control structures if this isn't clear
