Conditionals relate to whatever the developer wants them to relate to. They are in no way limited to layout and display. I can just as easily use a conditional tag to control (sic) a SQL update as I can to determine whether or not to show someone's credit card number. > - gotos send control out of the current file (i.e. Control) In my view (!), you are splitting hairs here. You are saying that if a tag exerts control over the flow that takes that flow out of the page, that is Control. But if a tag exerts control over the flow such that the flow remains within the page, that is View. > > > 2) If we removed these tags, we wouldn't be enforcing anything. > But, we will be making a statement about the MVC pattern. e.g. People can still > put in java code in scriptlets in JSP pages, we are not stopping them.

And I claim that using logical names in preference to hard coded URLs is a best practice, and that <logic:forward> and <logic:redirect> promote this practice. -- Martin Cooper > > imho > > __________________________________________________ > Do you Yahoo!? > Yahoo!
