Hi! Yup, its easy to create taglibraries
that will conditionally process/skip their
child content/tags. I beleive many taglibs
out there in the wild do it.
In addition to struts i can mantion the forthcoming JSTL (now only
early access releases are available), jakarta should have (maybe even
several) taglibs of that kind. I guess many many other handmade and
industrial quolity taglibs live now. There are some sites where
you can search for available taglibs, but now I just can't remember
the addresses.
VB> I should think that a tag is the better way...
VB> if you use struts there's a library "logic" which has
VB> a tag <present> in it to test a boolean value.
VB> I think it is also an example of tag creation in the
VB> Sun documentation about J2EE Servers (section JSP or
VB> tag handler, I don't remember).
VB> Hope it helped,
