I am unclear on what your question is. ... but I think you're
(basically) asking what you need to do in order to use the JSTL. Could
I possibly suggest that you:
- actually read the information that came with your JSTL distrib
(you'll find what you need to do to have the taglib included for
a JSP)
- look at the (excellent) documentation provided on the JSTL
jakarta/Sun pages
(the specification isn't a bad read - and Sun's site has a
really good reference too which is much shorter)
I'm not going to tell you how to declare every taglib :-) This can be
found easily by STFW. So far as variables and what you can/cannot use,
the specification would be the authority. However ... you have access
to variables in each of the four scopes. There (I believe) are
different ways to reference them:
${<which>Scope['key']} - where <which> is one of (page | request |
session | application)
${key} - I *believe* this will "walk the scopes" and find the attribute
by name (though I am unclear on this - should look at the spec)
