oh brother.. this means I would have to upgrade to sdk 1.5 from 1.4
(Tomcat 5.5 requires 1.5.. it might not be a bad idea, though, b/c I
also want to start playing with NetBeans.. but have been reluctant to
upgrade everything...:)
TC 5.5 should work just fine with JDK 1.4. Make sure to download the
apache-tomcat-[version]-compat.zip file and install it after the base
distro.
ok, many thanks to everyone for your help..

Set up a fresh install of the latest Tomcat on the side with the
correct web.xml entry, and put a test jsp page in it with a simple EL
expression and see if it evaluates. I have apache-tomcat-5.5.12
and a different set of jar files under
apache-tomcat-5.5.12\common\lib : commons-el.jar

again, thank you all very much.. as mentioned, I have Tomcat
5.0.27, which comes with the following (as specified in
release-notes.txt that comes with it):
* commons-collections*.jar (Commons Collections 2.1 or later)
* commons-dbcp.jar (Commons DBCP 1.1 or later)
* commons-el.jar (Commons Expression Language 1.0)
* commons-logging-api.jar (Commons Logging API 1.0.3 or later)

* naming-factory.jar (JNDI object factories for J2EE ENC support)
* naming-resources.jar (JNDI DirContext implementations)
* servlet-api.jar (Servlet 2.4 API)
this means my EL expressions should evaluate, right?
Don't worry about that stuff, focus on your app. The first thing to
do is to make sure you're using a Servlet 2.4 web.xml. It should
look something like this:
xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance";
xsi:schemaLocation="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/j2ee
http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/j2ee/web-app_2_4.xsd";
version="2.4">
...
If you're using a Servlet 2.3 web.xml, then EL will be ignored by
default.
thank you very much.. I put what you posted in my web.xml (in lieu of
what I had there previously (and what I have in all web.xml's in
Tomcat), namely
PUBLIC "-//Sun Microsystems, Inc.//DTD Web Application 2.3//EN"
"http://java.sun.com/dtd/web-app_2_3.dtd";>
....
I put the code you posted in both the web.xml for the particular webapp
and in conf/web.xml.. but EL expressions are still not evaluating..
this is how a JSP with EL prints in the browser (IE & FF..)
Request Method: ${pageContext.request.method}
Request Protocol: ${pageContext.request.protocol}
Context Path: ${pageContext.request.contextPath}
....
Remote Host: ${pageContext.request.remoteHost}
Secure: ${pageContext.request.secure}
Cookies: ${c.name}: ${c.value}
Headers: ${h.key}: ${value}
thanks again....
