RE: how to use methods with parameters

[Ben Anderson]

Here's a little tester jsp that demonstrates one way to do it:

<%@ taglib prefix="c" uri="http://java.sun.com/jstl/core"; %>

<jsp:useBean id="endDate" class="java.util.Date">
<jsp:useBean id="startDate" class="java.util.Date"/>
   <%-- this sets the startDate to one year ago --%>
   <c:set target="${startDate}" property="year" value="103"/>
</jsp:useBean>
startDate: <c:out value="${startDate}"/><br/>
endDate: <c:out value="${endDate}"/><br/>
<%-- of course it would probably be better to actually perform this 
multiplication
    and insert it into the code --%>
calcDate:<c:out value="${(startDate.time - endDate.time) / (24 * 60 * 60 * 
1000)}"/>

Hi,

is it possible to use JSTL for an expression like

<%=calculateDays(startDate, endDate) %> ???

probably not, but I am too new to JSTL to figure it out by myself. Could
someone advise me?
thanks.
Dirk
