I don't have access to the earlier messages, but have you been able to
get _any_ JSTL tags to work? Do you have the JSTL jars and everything?
I've never had _any_ problems with JSTL that weren't traceable to a
wrong taglib or a missing JAR.

No dots, nada.
I will create a fresh project that simulates the current situation and see
if it shows the same behavior... That might allow me to track down the
problem.
At least, I learned that EL is somewhat picky about what it sees and what
not ;)
Thanks anyway guys... I'll post again, if/when I found the reason for this

Again, I think you're trying to access something in EL that it doesn't
know about. EL doesn't (in my understanding) automatically obtain
scriptlet variables. You'd have to put errmsglength in PageContext so
EL can find it. Try this:
<%@ taglib uri="/WEB-INF/c.tld" prefix="c" %>
<%
int errmsglength = 5;
pageContext.setAttribute("errmsglength", new Integer(errmsglength));
%>
<c:if test="${errmsglength > 1}">...</c:if>
Greg
or you can do something like:
<c:set><%=variable%></c:set>
you need to put appropriate attributes on the c:set tag of course.
