If I am constantly moving variables and objects between JSP and JSTL, should I consider switching to the -rt version of the tag. I am not sure what is there performance implications of rtexprvalue - tag lib. Is it advisable to mix them both. All most all the doc I have seen on JSTL only talk about the EL version.
Are there any recommendations that you can come with, given the nature of the code and the page content what version of the JSTL tag lib is better suited. By reading JSTL Action book seem to prefer the core EL version. JSTL is the best of thing that has happened to the JAVA, It really opens up of lot of options with JSP. Some of these tags makes the JSP pages very powerful, like the sql, import, and iteration tags. JSTL is very good for developing content management, template based architecture or any data driven web application. I can't wait to see JSTL become part of standard JAVA. -dave
