Hi, All:

How do you compare strings (if you can) with JSTL?  I am having trouble
finding a good online reference (if anyone knows of one, please let me
know).

I have a string that I am getting from an object that is in a collection in
one of my forms.

I have used the c:choose and c:if core JSTL successfully but only with a
boolean value (here is an example):

<c:set var="whiteBackground" scope="page" value="${false}"/>
  <nested:iterate id="tier" property="tierAccess">
  <tr>
    <c:choose>
      <c:when test="${whiteBackground}">
        <td bgcolor="#FFFFFF">
      </c:when>
      <c:otherwise>
        <td>
      </c:otherwise>
    </c:choose>

...

The only problem is that I used this test with one value of boolean type.
Now I know that I have to make the c:when (or c:if) test attribute resolve
to a boolean condition: how can I use this (or similar tag) to do a string
compare?

I guess a big issue for me is finding a good online reference since I am new
to JSTL.

Any help would be great.

Thanks,
John
