I have a JSP with several sections, each of which needs to be hidden or shown based on user preference. I believe I've gotten the code done to toggle the on/off value of each section and to set a persistent cookie for the user in the form of: profile_sections = YYYNNNYYYNYNYNYYNN
Now I'm working on the JSP code which will show (or not) each section as required. I don't know what the best way to do this would be. Do I add attributes to the request and then use <x:if select="{$showAddress}" > <table><tr><td>stuff</td></tr></table> </x:if> Or can I get at the cookie with JSTL? (And pick out a specific position of it??) The setting of the cookie is done in a Struts Action, so I've got Struts (and Struts-EL) tags available if one of those would be easier to use. Bear with me, it's my first cookie. :) If you have a suggestion for a different way to do this, I'm all ears. -- Wendy Smoak Applications Systems Analyst, Sr. Arizona State University PA Information Resources Management
