Hi all, I'm using Tomcat 5.0.29. I've created a custom tag and I need to be able to use runtime expressions for certain attributes. But it isn't working and I'm beating my head on the desk trying to figure out why.
Here's my TLD: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <!DOCTYPE taglib PUBLIC "-//Sun Microsystems, Inc.//DTD JSP Tag Library 1.1//EN" "http://java.sun.com/j2ee/dtds/web-jsptaglibrary_1_1.dtd";> <taglib> <tlibversion>1.2</tlibversion> <jspversion>1.1</jspversion> <shortname>mytags</shortname> <uri>com/company/taglib</uri> <tag> <name>button</name> <tagclass>com.company.app.taglib.ButtonTag</tagclass> <bodycontent>empty</bodycontent> <attribute> <name>id</name> <required>true</required> <rtexprvalue>true</rtexprvalue> </attribute> <attribute> <name>onClick</name> <required>true</required> <rtexprvalue>true</rtexprvalue> </attribute> <attribute> </tag> </tag> </taglib> Specifically, I'm trying to do this on the page: <%@ taglib uri="/WEB-INF/apptags.tld" prefix="app" %> ... <% String fName = (String)hm.get("name"); %> <app:button id="btnSelect" onClick="selectAll(<%=fName%>);" /> Now, the button renders its code just fine, the *ONLY* thing that isn't working is that the emitted HTML includes the string <%=fName%> instead of it being evaluated. I've verified that the fName string *DOES* get the appropriate value in it. So, as near as I can tell, the taglib code itself, all the setup, etc., is fine, *EXCEPT* for the ability to do runtime expressions like this. What am I missing? Does this need to be turned on in Tomcat or something? I wouldn't think so, but I'm at a loss. Thanks!
