- Alex ++ JavaServer Pages (JSP) FAQ: http://www.jguru.com/faq/JSP Can I make a jsp custom tag to return a value in to a jsp variable.<p> I want a jsp custom tag to evaluate some condition based on the parameters I pass and return a boolean to the jsp page in a java variable (type boolean).<p> Can anybody give some sample of the code using similar functionality. <br>Can we some how use the get methods in the tagHandler in our jsp to retrieve the values? http://www.jguru.com/misc/faqtrampoline.jsp?src=notify&EID=593533 Is it possible to invoke customtags onEvents like onClick? http://www.jguru.com/misc/faqtrampoline.jsp?src=notify&EID=592466 Here is what I have: <P> 1.

I do not want any new JSPs , which have not being pre-compiled to be executed via tomcat on the browser, Is there any property/configuration file which I need to change in Tomcat?? http://www.jguru.com/misc/faqtrampoline.jsp?src=notify&EID=592460 Why use JSP? All that we can do with scriptlets we can do with JavaScript as well, I think. Can somebody explain? http://www.jguru.com/misc/faqtrampoline.jsp?src=notify&EID=590882 We are building a series of JSP pages, each of which is responsible for producing a different area of the screen. Any given screen that the end user sees, therefore, is made up of a number of "blocks", each of which has been generated by a single JSP. The top level JSP calls in the "blocks" using a jsp:include. We are trying to use the JSP errorPage directive on every JSP to display an error to the user if something goes wrong with any of the "blocks", but are finding that we end up with the error page only taking up part of the screen (for the block which had an error), whereas we would like the whole screen to be filled up by the errorPage. In other words - if something goes wrong with any of the blocks that comprise a screen - we would like to display nothing but the error page. What is the best way to do this ? http://www.jguru.com/misc/faqtrampoline.jsp?src=notify&EID=590880 ++ Servlets FAQ: http://www.jguru.com/faq/Servlets HttpUtils.parseQueryString is deprecated. What should we use instead ? http://www.jguru.com/misc/faqtrampoline.jsp?src=notify&EID=587251 In some web.xml I find DOCTYPE reference of "web-app_2_2.dtd",(in Weblogic 5.1 example) in others, of "web-app_2.2.dtd" (in java pet store). What is the difference between the two DTDs? http://www.jguru.com/misc/faqtrampoline.jsp?src=notify&EID=586710 What are the steps that I need to follow to deploy my servlet in WebLogic 6.1? http://www.jguru.com/misc/faqtrampoline.jsp?src=notify&EID=586701 How can I suppress the parameters from displaying in the URL? For instance, if I pass in a password, I don't want it to show up in the address bar. http://www.jguru.com/misc/faqtrampoline.jsp?src=notify&EID=586493 ++ Tomcat FAQ: http://www.jguru.com/faq/Tomcat Why is Tomcat 4.0 so slow when connecting via a URLConnection? http://www.jguru.com/misc/faqtrampoline.jsp?src=notify&EID=588390 You can shut email notification off at the FAQ home page(s) or: http://www.jguru.com/guru/notifyprefs.jsp -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> For additional commands, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
