There are two different "yes" answers to your question: * You can write a JSP page in the standard syntax that outputs XML instead of HTML. Therefore, your page must obey XML document syntax rules. * There is a pure-XML syntax for your JSP pages as well, which is more oriented towards tools than people -- but, of course, you must again obey XML syntax rules if you do this. Because either of these are possible (and quite common when talking to wireless devices, for example), and because the syntax of custom tags in general was designed to be XML-compatible, we could not use "xml" as the recommended namespace for the XML tag library in JSTL. > > David > Craig -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> For additional commands, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
