I am curious about how the nested taglib fits into this discussion.
I have been using the nested tags for just about all my forms and logic
tags.
Do JSTL tags have the capability as nested tags?
Thanks

You should use the JSTL EL library because of the expression language's
power. These tags replace most of the logic and bean tags from Struts. On
my projects I only use the struts html taglib and the rest is handled with
jstl. The constants in JSP issue is tricky and I haven't solved it myself.
