Thanks to both the suggestions about JSP 2.0 e.g. implemented
first in tomcat 5, I ended up on the following page:
http://archives.java.sun.com/cgi-bin/wa?A2=ind0305&L=jsp-interest&D=0&P=24887
And actually I was using a web.xml version 2.3, it seems EL is
disabled there by default :(
Using a 2.4 version, it does work perfectly.
But this is kinda stupid, I am using a web.xml file shown as a
demo in the official tomcat 5.0.27 distribution. I don't quite
get why it was using a web.xml of this older version.
Thanks for the help!
