The JSTL is not part of Struts, but it can easily be used along with it. There is also a variation of the Struts tag libraries that evaluates attribute values using the same expression evaluation engine that the JSTL uses (the Apache implementation, at least). This is called "Struts-EL", and it's available in the "contrib" directory of the Struts distribution.

At this moment, I don't know how many different types of TagLibs Struts has to offer. But from what you have mentioned, they can really be of great help to JSP Developers and can reduce complexity. Can you tell me little more how using the Struts tags can avoid using scriptlets? Is JSTL part of Strtus tablibs?

If you don't use the Struts html taglibs, you will lose a lot of the functionality that they provide, namely prepopulation of form input values. A lot of the other tags also provide functionality that lets you avoid having to use scriptlets. Some functionality is overlapped by the JSTL tags and in those cases, it is preferable to use JSTL instead of the struts equivalents. Overall, you probably won't lose much in performance, if you don't use the Struts tags, but you'll have to do a lot more work yourself and this may come at the expense of maintainability and readability of your JSP pages.
