I figured it out
it is to do with JSP 2.0 spec
if you put
suppressSmap - false in web.xml
like so...
it works
<servlet>
<servlet-name>jsp</servlet-name>
<servlet-class>org.apache.jasper.servlet.JspServlet</servlet-class>
<init-param>
<param-name>suppressSmap</param-name>
<param-value>true</param-value>
</init-param>
</servlet>
I will do a how-to web page in the next couple of days
