Hello Fea, I dont think, there are any differences in the way both JSTL and Struts logic tags work. Fundamentally they both iterate the same input array and produce the output. Using Logic Iterate tags, you can eliminate many scriptlet tags that you might end up using when you use JSTL scripts. The choice is yours as to which to choose.
JSTL is Java standard. Logic Iterate is Struts specific. Thanks and regards, Pazhanikanthan. P Project Leader, Caritor (India) Pvt.
