I'm using: Java SDK 1.4.2_03, Java J2EE 1.4 jakarta-taglibs-standard-1.0.5 jakarta-tomcat-4.1.30
I've had no trouble using the core, sql, and fmt tags in my JSPs. ***All I did was to drop jstl.jar and standard.jar into my WEB-INF directory and add the proper directives to the JSPs*** for example: <%@ taglib uri="http://java.sun.com/jstl/core" prefix="c" %> <%@ taglib uri="http://java.sun.com/jstl/fmt" prefix="fmt" %> <%@ taglib uri="http://java.sun.com/jstl/sql" prefix="sql" %> I do/did not need to add anything at all the app's web.xml. I'm working on a quite large and controlled application, so the fewer changes I make the better. Its very cool that I could use tags just by adding the jars to the lib dir.... The problem: Now, I have occasion to want to use c-rt as well. (Especially because its too burdensome to pass data back and forth between the tags and java kingdoms thru the page context for simple string manipulations..) As soon as I try to use c-rt, problems begin.. I cannot just add: <%@ taglib uri="http://java.sun.com/jstl/core-rt" prefix="c-rt" %> because the uri is not found on page compile. If I add a direct reference for this URI to my web.xml, then this URI is Ok. i.e. <taglib> <taglib-uri>http://java.sun.com/jstl/core-rt</taglib-uri> <taglib-location>/WEB-INF/lib/standard.jar</taglib-location> </taglib> fixes the c-rt issue, but now --none-- of the sql tag impls can be found... even if I add another direct reference for them to the web.xml, for example, adding: <taglib> <taglib-uri>http://java.sun.com/jstl/sql</taglib-uri> <taglib-location>/WEB-INF/lib/standard.jar</taglib-location> </taglib> to the web.xml does not help. For now I give up using c-rt, but... Seems very strange, any ideas? Does this seem a familiar problem? --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
