I'm not sure it's a bug in WLS. In JSP.2.6 Quoting and Escape Conventions under
Quoting in Attributes:
A ' is quoted as \'. This is required within a single quote-delimited attribute
value.
A " is quoted as \". This is required within a double quote-delimited attribute
value.
Plus an example of an *illegal* attribute value:
<mytags:tag value="<%= "hi!" %>" />
So it looks like WLS is doing the right thing (or at least isn't violating the
spec), but someone with a little more spec knowledge would have to make the call...
Quoting Kauppinen Martti <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>:
