Yes people do do that. The listees do not have a problem with people doing this as many of them do many things at one time as well.

I shall check out the Jakarta Project forthwith.

Well I see you are taking a step in the right direction Paul .

It would also suggest you are not looking hard enough.


"You could find or make an xml parsing taglib."

I am trying to find one! Again, any 'direction' from the list, rather
than
vilification, is appreciated!

Paul.



There is one in plain sight. I suggest you look around in the jakarta project.




You may get a flood of email telling you to read up on taglibs.
You could find or make an xml parsing taglib.

Subject: JSP + custom tags (XML)
Date: Thu, 28 Nov 2002 09:50:33 +0800

Hi,
In my quest to be able to parse a 10 line XML file in a JSP
(notice the sarcasm there?) and extract an element value, I have come
accross a few PDFs that talk of custom tags - and for the purposes of


XML,



a taglib directive. In several examples I saw <%@ taglib uri="..."
prefix="tl" %> and syntax such as <tl:parse id=...". Can anyone shed
some

light on this please? What is 'uri'? Presuming it was a path to my XML
file I plugged in - <%@ taglib uri="myfile.xml" prefix="tl" %>, hoping I
could parse it and extract elements using <tl:parse id=.... etc.


Supplying



the XML file below, I was given the error in the browser:

org.apache.jasper.JasperException: XML parsing error on file
/myfile.xml:

(line 3, col -1): Element type "books" is not declared.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>
<books>

<book isbn="123">
<title>1</title>
<quantity>10</quantity>
<price>$17.95</price>
</book>

</books>

What have I stumbled upon? Am i way off thinking I can use this syntax
to

parse my XML file? What is the significance of the error displayed?

Thanks very much

paul.
