Understood - thanks for the clear, and to the point error.
Doesn't that mean that the following should work?
<c:set var="bodyId" scope="request">
<tiles:getAsString name="body.id" ignore="true"/>
</c:set>
<body id="${requestScope.bodyId}">?
Or just <body id="${bodyId}">
Because it doesn't work for me. Do I have to use the 2.4 in web.xml to make
this work?
Thanks,
Matt

EL is integral to the jsp2 spec. Not jstl. EL is based off of jstl.
From a quick glance at the spec, I see in Section 4:
"References to JSTL are informational - this library is not required by the
JSP 2.0 specification."
If you search for JSTL in the spec, its seems clear that if you want JSTL:
you still need the classes and taglib declarations. The difference with JSP2
is you can now do this syntax without needing JSTL:
Hello ${someVariable} (woohoo, no c:out needed!)
I think you can also do this now too .. <mytag myattr="${elExpression}"/>
But to do a loop (c:foreach) - you still need JSTL. You'll even see the
taglib declarations for the JSTL core taglib in the examples in the spec.
