I had the same problem last week. For whatever reason (The JSP policy on
whitespace) I couldn't set a variable to "\n" but I could create one
using the following hack:
<c:set var="temp" value="one
two"/>
<c:set var="newline" value="${fn:substring(temp,4,5)}"/>
(Note that on my windows computer temp="one\r\ntwo" so that the 5th
character is the newline character)
Then you should be able to split the string using this new variable,
e.g.
<c:forEach items='${fn:split(feed, newline)}' var="row">
<c:out value="${row}"/>
</c:forEach>

Subject: jstl and splitting carriage returns
Hi again,
Anyone know if it's possible to do an fn:split on carriage returns (\n).
I just get invalid expression error messages with:
<c:forEach items='${fn:split(feed, "\n")}' var="row">
<c:out value="${row}"/>
</c:forEach>
TIA
