Re: Setting html:hidden property using JSTL
It's not possible to use a custom tag as the value of another custom tag attribute. You should use JSP 2.0 or struts-el instead.

RE: Setting html:hidden property using JSTL
Got it to work: turns out I had jstl1.1 deployed in the 2.3 container and
it wasn't apparently screwed up until I tried to do this.

I'm using JBoss3.2 and Tomcat4.1 and do not have these problems so there is a way to fix this:) First off, have you tried the html-el tag and then used: That DEFINITELY should work. -- Rick - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
RE: Setting html:hidden property using JSTL
Setup checklist - here's what should be in WEB-INF/lib:
Struts 1.1:
---
commons-beanutils.jar
commons-collections.jar
commons-digester.jar
commons-fileupload.jar
commons-lang.jar
commons-logging.jar
commons-validator.jar
jakarta-oro.jar
struts-el.jar
struts.jar
Standard 1.0.5:
---
jaxen-full.jar
jstl.jar
saxpath.jar
standard.jar
jaxen-full.jar and saxpath.jar are only required if you want to use JSTL's
XML/XSLT tags. Remove the TLD files from your app, remove the elements
from web.xml, and use the "well-known" URIs for the taglibs:
<%@ taglib prefix="c"
uri="http://java.sun.com/jstl/core"; %>
<%@ taglib prefix="html"
uri="http://jakarta.apache.org/struts/tags-html"; %>
<%@ taglib prefix="html-el"
uri="http://jakarta.apache.org/struts/tags-html-el"; %>

RE: Setting html:hidden property using JSTL
I am having the same nagging problem in JBoss3.2.3/Tomcat4.1.
---this works just fine
The last line always renders as '' both in
the Form property and the request parameter.
I checked versions, etc. as detailed earlier in this thread. I'm stumped.

What container are you using? If this is Resin, this has been known to
cause problems because of the fact that Resin has an integrated version
of the JSTL which doesn't work the same as the Jakarta one. If you're
using Resin, make sure the integrated JSTL is not being used.

RE: Setting html:hidden property using JSTL
Small clarification that the Servlet 2.4/JSP 2.0 specs don't include/require
JSTL. Although a given container may include a JSTL implementation (like Resin,
I believe), it's not a requirement. For example, Tomcat 5.0 does not include a
JSTL implementation. For JSP 1.2, use JSTL 1.0. For JSP 2.0, use JSTL 1.1. As
Robert illustrated, the taglib URIs are not the same for the two JSTL
versions.

RE: Setting html:hidden property using JSTL
I'm sorry, I've missed parts of this thread, but this
last message caught my eye when you said it's printing
${contentId} to the screen instead of the value of contentId.
Which servlet spec. does your container support? I've seen this
type of behavior when the container supports Servlet Spec. 2.4 but
the web.xml file is referring to the 2.3 dtd.
If your container does support the 2.4 spec, then make sure your
web.xml file has
http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/j2ee";
xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance";
xsi:schemaLocation="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/j2ee/web-app_2_4.xsd";>
in its root element.
Again, if your container does support the 2.4 spec, then you
shouldn't need any .tld files or even jar files for JSTL.
All you should have to do is add (or include) something like this to the
top of your .jsp page.
<%-- JSTL Standard Tags --%>
<%@ taglib uri="http://java.sun.com/jsp/jstl/core"; prefix="c" %>
<%@ taglib uri="http://java.sun.com/jsp/jstl/fmt"; prefix="fmt" %>
If your container does not support the 2.4 spec, then you will need
to include the appropriate .tld and .jar files and update your web.xml
file to reference the appropriate .tld file(s).

Re: Setting html:hidden property using JSTL
Hello All,
I *really* appreciate your help. Because of a
hard-pressing work deadline, i actually gave up on
getting that to work using JSTL and ended up using the
ugly "/>
instead.
I'll definitely come back to JSTL at a later time
since i consider that to be a proper way of doing this
sort of things.
Robert, if ${contentId} is available as an attribute
(which it was) and not as a parameter, i would expect
it to produce null or something instead of literally
printing out ${contentId} string...
Rick, i tried creating a var in the jsp and the result
would still be the same: the value of the hidden
property was printed out as {$myVar}. And, if i do
c:out in the begging of the jsp, i do get an actual
int value printed. weird... i definitely need to spend
more time doing my homework to understand how it
works...
All the best,
James

RE: Setting html:hidden property using JSTL
I believe the reason it's not populated in the
action form is because its in the request as an attribute
and not a parameter.
I just started experimenting with jstl and i'd like to
set a hidden field on MyActionForm using a value
(contentId) available as an attribute on the request.

Re: Setting html:hidden property using JSTL
Thanks a lot to all who responded!
So i tried using html-el using the syntax Rick
suggested:
The resulting html contains:
This are the tagligs i am importing on this page:
<%@ taglib uri="/WEB-INF/struts-bean.tld"
prefix="bean" %>
<%@ taglib uri="/WEB-INF/struts-html.tld"
prefix="html" %>
<%@ taglib uri="/WEB-INF/struts-html-el.tld"
prefix="html-el" %>
<%@ taglib uri="http://java.sun.com/jstl/core";
prefix="c" %>
What am i doing wrong?
Thanks a lot,
James
