what is the difference between having a scriptlet or what you use above?

Hehe I rather agree Jim!
(Mind you I am rather anti-JSP so my view is probably a bit biased!)

Your question reminds me of an old article I read several months ago by
Jason Hunter (author of the O'Rielly Servlet book) written back at the dawn
of time (or to be more precise in the year 2000).
http://www.servlets.com/soapbox/problems-jsp.html

The quote that stuck in my mind was:
<snip>
Someday there will be custom tags for doing these loops. And custom tags for
"if" checks too. And JSP pages may look like a grotesque Java reimplemented
with tags
</snip>

Hmmm??????

<c:if test="${(count == 0) || (count == 2) || (count == 4)}">
   ... do something ...
</c:if>

Hi Craig I remember seeing one of you posts where you say you are against
having java code in a JSP but what is the difference between having a
scriptlet or what you use above?
