Properly iterating results with c:forEach?

[Timothy Kettering]

I've been banging my head on this for a bit, and I'm not sure if its me, or a bug in the functionality. I'm attempting to use JSTL to iterate over an array of results, and heres what I'm doing.

Heres a simple example:

<%@ taglib uri="http://java.sun.com/jstl/core"; prefix="c" %>

Begin the count</br>

<c:forEach begin="1" end="1" varStatus="count">
<c:out value="${count.count}"/>: one row here...<br>
</c:forEach>


which gives me a result of this:

Begin the count


Then if I change it to:

<%@ taglib uri="http://java.sun.com/jstl/core"; prefix="c" %>

Begin the count</br>

<c:forEach begin="1" end="2" varStatus="count">
<c:out value="${count.count}"/>: one row here...<br>
</c:forEach>

I get this:

Begin the count
1: one row here...
2: one row here...


My question is.. how do I do this to get just one row printed? Its either zero, or then two, and works fine after that. Sometimes my page wants to return just one result, and no matter how i diddle with stuff here, I always end up with either a blank page, or a single row that prints correctly, and then a empty row, which isn't what i want. Am I missing something here?
