Re: [Jelly] Converting JSP taglib to Jelly taglib

[Robert]

If you have messy HTML that would probably be the case. However, Jelly 
scripts can easily generate HTML as well as anything else (csv files, 
XML, straight text, or no output at all). There is even a JellyServlet 
for doing such a thing. Oh yea and you can embed Velocity scipts (using 
a Jelly tag) in a jelly script as well.

I have used Jelly to dynamically generate a ton a test SQL statements 
into a regular text file to populate a database with dummy data.

On a related note, I am working on a JSP taglib that will allow 
embedding of Jelly scripts in a JSP page as well as executing an 
'external' jelly script, if you are interested. I have a definate need 
for it coming up soon so I'm going to write it regardless and then 
donate it, but if you want I will send it to you when I'm done.

Would you agree?

A jelly script *must* be a well-formed XML document.

Hi,

I am new to Jelly.
I was thinking about converting a JSP taglib to Jelly tags.
But I have some concerns.
One very handy thing about JSP parsing
is that jsp does not have to be a well formed XML document.
How about Jelly?
Could I use some jelly tags inside a html document
that is filled with javascript, ampersands and
unfinished tags?
