Thanks. Someone on this board told me that before. When I use : <%@ taglib prefix="c" uri="http://java.sun.com/jsp/jstl/core"; %> followed by <c:out value = '${param.search}'/>, the outout is ${param.search} instead of the search parameter value. When I use the other library it works as expected. Any ideas why?
