Can I get some clarification on the above paragraph, specifically the
line, "Development has essentially stopped on the Struts presentation
tags."

Does this mean that the Struts-HTML tag library is no longer being
developed or supported?  

When talking about the "struts presentation tags", it's the Struts-HTML
tag library that I think of.  However, I don't know of equivalent
support for this library from the JSTL libraries.  So, if Mike is
correct and usage of the Struts-HTML library is discouraged, then what
should I replace it with?  My usage of this library is rather heavy
right now (<html:form>, plus all the associated HTML input tags) so if
usage is discouraged, I'd really like to know.

Now, I know that pretty much all of the Struts-Logic tag library
(equality, iteration, etc) and some of the Struts-Bean library can be
replaced with the JSTL.  Mike, is this the "presentation library" that
you're referring to?

So, which libraries am I being discouraged from using?

Apologies for being pedantic, but I'd like to be absolutely clear about
the quoted paragraph.

Thanks

JDG
