Ahhh, tag files is something I hadn't head of before. This example shows
a simple one being used:

I'm still not sure what you meant by "custom JSTL function", though.

The following is an example btw:

Currnetly it exposes various Commons Lang functions to JSTL using tag functions.

Hello Marcel,
If I understand you correctly, then it is not exactly possible to do what
you'd like.
More specifically, I believe you're talking about making an EL function (vs.
JSTL which is a set of third party tags/functions). You can use any public
static method in any class for this, so it doesn't need to be special in any
way, but you do need to define it in a tag library so that a JSP page knows
how to find it. You can isolate a bunch of your utility EL functions in
their own tag library with their own prefix to avoid polluting your main tag
libraries, but I would generally organize by cohesion instead (putting
related tags and functions together in the same tag libraries, following the
same approach one might do with OO class creation).
I haven't read all of this, but skimming it seemed to satisfy me that the
basics are covered:

Any reference to an example would be helpful.
Cheers,
