I find those core tags to look too much like a disguised version of <% %>
tag which I prefer to avoid if I could.
I'd rather want to know what's wrong with the custom tag I designed. I want
to learn how to make them and this one should work but doesn't.
I'm using version 2.3 and I'm using tomcat 5.5.9
