As Ranko asked, about the redundancy of Struts I would like to know that the
heck is the deal with SOME of these tag libs out there?
I mean, look at this: <c:if test="${index%2==0}"> and look at this: <%
if(index.intValue()%2==0){ %>
I like NOT to use Java scriptlets in my JSPs and I am pretty decent at
achieving that but
if my only resolve of using a "tag" is to have it look like CODE and not a
true tag why
have people (code maintainers and the original coder in the first place)
learn a new "language"
and just use a scriptlet?
Seeing $var like tag code that makes me think this is some sort of
conspiracy so that all the
UNIX admins, with their UNIX scripts, who needed new jobs, since WinTel is
taking over, starting
writing "tag" libraries.
I mean really, what is the deal with these so called "tags" that aren't
tags?
JavaScript was cool when it came out (and wasn't developed by Sun) because
if you knew Java then
you were about 90% there to being a great JavaScripter.
So I say Ranko, are you just as bewildered at this as I am?
:-)
