Re: Dynamic JSPs and STRUTS

[Ruth, Brice]

JSTL in particular has a lot of tags for wrangling XML, so if you do 
pull out your 100 odd differences into an XML file, you'll need JSTL, 
most likely, to re-construct your JSP. I guess this sorta depends on if 
you understand XML at all ... if you can think of a way of using XML to 
pull out the 100 differences into an XML structure that makes sense, 
then just looking at some online documentation for JSTL should put you 
well on your way to getting this done.

Also, if you use the Struts EL tags, you pretty much are forced to use 
the JSTL tags as well, since certain Struts tags are not present in the 
Struts EL taglibs, since they are *precisely* the same (with EL) as the 
JSTL equivalent. The Struts EL documentation indicates which Struts tags 
are not present as well as what the equivalent JSTL tag is.

Good luck!

used for dynamic form elements?  What struts tag libs overlap JSTL?

Yes, JSTL plays very well with struts even though there is a great deal
of overlap.
I use JSTL exclusively for non-form elements - i.e., pure presentation /
output stuff.

The web app was developed using Struts.  This is a new section of the
app I
am developing.  I wanted to continue using Struts  libraries/components
to
construct dynamic JSP pages.  Does JSTL integrate nicely with Struts? 
Or
does Struts have similar components that do the same thing?
