I agree Rick, although I'm not sure anyone should *ever* listen to me :)
Like I said, I'm not saying NEVER use taglibs, just that SOMETIMES (well, MANY times, in my opinion) they are superfluous. THIS time, they made sense. :)

Any help is appreciated.
By the way searched in Google for "how to iterate over Map using JSTL" and the second result showed how to do this:) http://www.informit.com/articles/article.asp?p=30946&seqNum=10
I only bring up google because you mentioned: "I feel like I'm trying to reach over my shoulder to scratch my ass here, because I *know* there must be a mind-nummingly easy way to do this which I'm missing. "
If you are doing all that reaching always at least try to type in what you want to do in Google:)
By the way, this is much cleaner than using sciplets so don't listen to Frank on this one:)
