So then I can completely remove the <taglib> tag from my web.xml file, making it look like the following? <?xml version="1.0"?> <web-app xmlns="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/j2ee";; xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance";; xsi:schemaLocation="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/j2ee http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/j2ee/web-app_2_4.xsd";; version="2.4"> <servlet> [...] </servlet> <servlet-mapping> [...] </servlet-mapping> <welcome-file-list> [...] </welcome-file-list> </web-app> There's nothing else I have to configure to use JSTL?
