JSTL or not, I'd say that non-Java programmers can write JSPs only if the project has some very strict guidelines and very good documentation on those guidelines and your custom tags. You would have to design the guidelines to be very restrictive of what tags you allow in the JSP. These restrictions should be designed so that the JSP writer does not need to have a complete understanding of how JSPs work. Setting up all of this I think would be a lot of work.
Instead I'd recommend something like Enhydra/XMLC (http://www.enhydra.org/). In this framework the page writers write HTML. Java programmers write code to insert the dynamic content into a DOM version of the HTML. > -----Original Message----- > From: Lyndon Durham [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] > Sent: Monday, February 03, 2003 3:55 PM > To: Tag Libraries Users List > Subject: Non Java Developers, programmers using JSTL and taglibs > > > Greetings, > As a software developer I would like to delegate some of > the more mundane and simpler development tasks to non developers, > programmers etc. The JSTL specification document claims that the jstl > was created to facilitate or ease development for web designers and non > java programmers.
