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 <input type="hidden" name="contentId"
value="<%=request.getAttribute("contentId")%>"/>
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
