Yep! Robin is exactly right. We've built up a syntax of probably roughly 150
to 200 tags in various taglibs to deal with our private equity trading
application and related stuff.
This is a typical XSP page from our site (sans namespace stuff):
<page>
<labels name="marketplace"/>
<title id=""/>
<navigation id="201" />
<user:user />
<community:community/>
<content>
<auction:items>
<auction:parameters><status>172</status></auction:parameters>
</auction:items>
<community:user_threadgroup>
<if-param:count>
<community:count><param:count/></community:count>
<community:start><param:start/></community:start>
</if-param:count>
</community:user_threadgroup>
</content>
<copyright/>
