thanks! if you speak from "we" i suppose you are part of the development team? furthermore i think that even in further releases my desired feature will not be part of EL, right:-) i have read that the jstl developer want to have EL be part of the jsp-container in the future. i think that at least at this point a lot of developer will asking for a support of using interfaces. is it possible to request features? where do i have to post to? nevertheless, thanks so fare. leif -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> For additional commands, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
