I have posted this and nobody has responded. I have defined a custom tag with attributes "lang" which sets the human language of the response, and "maxRows" which sets the number of rows from the database response which will be displayed. The problem is that Tomcat REFUSES to permit me to use those specific names. Specifically it issues an error message saying that it is "unable to find the setter method". If I rename them to something essentially equivalent, but meaningless to my users, the attributes are accepted. But I do not see why I should force my users to enter meaningless strings of characters because Tomcat will not accept the two obvious names for these attributes. I have searched the JSP 1.2 and Tomcat documentation exhaustively and I cannot find any documentation of restrictions on the naming of attributes.
Either show me the spot in the documentation where it says that I cannot use those attribute name or tell me how do I get Tomcat to recognize these attribute names. Jim Cobban [EMAIL PROTECTED] 34 Palomino Dr. Kanata, ON, CANADA K2M 1M1 +1-613-592-9438
