Are they fully-aware of the decision they're making? Are you running within a container that supports Servlet Specification 2.3 and JSP Specification 1.2?
I can't conceive of anyone being so narrow-minded. If I told my boss I wanted to use the JSTL over Struts' taglibs (a conversation that would never take place because I'm able to do whatever I feel is best), citing that the JSTL was a standard technology and that the Struts taglibs would be going away, he'd thank me for the FYI and tell me to do what I felt was best. We're very into using standards-compliant methodologies where it makes sense to do so though.

Subject: RE: Need an alternative to bean:define
Thanks Matt, but I think my problem is that I'm using Struts 1.1 (and can't
change it)
According to: http://struts.apache.org/userGuide/struts-bean.html#define
You can't re-define in 1.1. There must be a workaround?
TIA, J

Janice -
I do multiple bean:defines (with values, not with name/property attributes) in some of my jsps, and never have problems, and am therefore assuming that the name/property attributes are causing the problem.
Here may be a non-jstl workaround you can try:
<bean:define id="lastClientName"> <bean:write name="widget" property="clientName" /> <bean:define>

Is JSTL an option? I find Struts Logic tag hard to read! If so, I think this should do:
<c:set var="lastCN" value=""/> <logic:iterate...> <c:if test="${widget.clinetName != lastCN}"> .... </c:if> <c:set var="lastCN" value="${widget.clientName}"/> </logic:iterate>
HTH. Of course this is from top of my head, i haven't tried it.

My brain has stopped working. I need an alternative to bean:define.
What I'm TRYING to do is iterate through a list, displaying a certain bit of code only when its different than the last iteration (grouping).
Here's a snip:
<bean:define id="lastClientName" value="" />
<logic:iterate id="widget" name="widgets">
<logic:notEqual name="widget" property="clientName" value="<%=lastClientName%>"> <tr> <td colspan=all> client: <bean:write name="widget" property="clientName" /> </td> </tr> <bean:define id="lastClientName" name="widget" property="clientName" /> </logic:notEqual>
End of snip.
This won't compile since bean "lastClientName" has already been defined. I can't change my version of Struts.
What would be some clean syntax to use instead?
Thanks so much in advance!
