I am trying to use custom tags in my JSP. I have illustrated the
simplified version of my problem below. Can anyone tell me how to go
about doing it?
Problem definition:
--------------------
I have a JSP in which I retrieve a hashtable from request object using
request.getAttribute() method. I need to display the commodity details
present in the Hashtable using custom tags.
Input Hashtable contents(given in Key: Value format)
---------------------------------------------------
"Commodity.length": "2"
"Commodity[0].Weight": "34"
"Commodity[1].Weight": "43"
Please note that the above keys are not Java arrays, they are just
strings
Required JSP format
-------------------
<gan:array name = "Commodity">
<table>
<tr>
<input type='text'
name='<gan:getFullNameForItem name="Weight" />'
value='<gan:getValueForItem name="Weight" />' />
</tr>
</table>
</gan:array>
Desired HTML output:
--------------------
<table>
<tr>
<input type='text'
name='Commodity[0].Weight'
value='34' />
<input type='text'
name='Commodity[1].Weight'
value='43' />
</tr>
</table>
My question:
------------
How can I go about implementing the tags starting with "gan:"?
Please note that there can be nested gan:array tags.
