Seems straight-through, but apparently it isn't. I have an object in the session scope, of which I need to show some attributes. Some of them need to be converted to upper case. You can use functions for that, but the problem is that I get a lot of errors :-/.
My taglib-definition looks as follows: <%@ taglib uri="http://java.sun.com/jstl/fmt"; prefix="fmt" %> <%@ taglib uri="http://java.sun.com/jstl/core"; prefix="c" %> <%@ taglib uri="http://java.sun.com/jstl/functions"; prefix="fn" %> If I put jstl/jsp/__ I get an error, stating that the URI cannot be resolved. If I leave the jsp out of the URL, everything works fine for c and fmt, but the tag library for functions can't be resolved. I've put the fn.tld in my web-app folder, where I've also put the others. If I do this: %@ taglib uri="http://java.sun.com/jsp/jstl/functions"; prefix="fn" %> <c:out value="${fn.toUpperCase(person.lastName)}" /> I get the following error: <h3>Validation error messages from TagLibraryValidator for c in /dynamic/view/ViewPersonView.jsp</h3><p>39: tag = 'out' / attribute = 'value': An error occurred while parsing custom action attribute "value" with value "${fn.toUpperCase(person.lastName)}": Encountered "(", expected one of ["}", ".", ">", "gt", "<", "lt", "==", "eq", "<=", "le", ">=", "ge", "!=", "ne", "[", "+", "-", "*", "/", "div", "%", "mod", "and", "&&", "or", "||"]</p> If I change it to fn.UpperCase (as the tld mentions), I get the same error. Can anybody tell me what I'm doing wrong, or how I can fix this? It's really annoying, since google tells me I have to do it this way. Declaration of the tag library is identical to core and fmt, and they work like a charm.
