We (and by that I mean "you") should probably modify one of the
servlet filters to stash this into request scope rather than assume
that commonheader will do this. That's the direction we should be
taking for 'global' JSTL variables. That way, template authors can't
mess things up (inadvertently or otherwise).

Terry,
The format string is read from the prefs variable.
But, in order to get this to work, the prefs variable must be set
first.
Check you commonheader.jsp whether it contains following stuff:
<%
Preferences.setupPreferences(pageContext);
%>
This will put the "prefs" variable in the pageContext, with all
user-prefs read either from the user cookie or from the
jspwiki.properties.
Good luck,

I got most of the stuff working, but I'm getting an error which
seem to
stem from the use of this tag (in PageActionsBottom.jsp):
<wiki:PageDate format='${prefs["DateFormat"]}' />
I'm assuming that the 'prefs' notation refers to a default that has
to
be set in the jspwiki.properties, but I'm not sure just what this
notation is supposed to do (though I find it scattered throughout the
newer version of JSP's).
Could someone explain just what this kind of notation is and how it's
used?
PS: I added "jspwiki.defaultprefs.template.dateformat =dd-MMM-yyyy
HH:mm" to jspwiki.properties, but that didn't appear to help.
PSS: I'm keeping track of the changes and adjustments I've had to
make,
so will document this when I'm all (successfully) done.
