Hi Dale,

Yes, i'm familiar with writing JSP tags, although it's been quite
some time since i've done so.  It took me about 1/2 an hour to
dust off the cobwebs and write a JSP tag extending BodyTagSupport
that did what I wanted it to do.

What I was more interested in is some guidelines similar to what Joachim
posted in writing a "struts2" tag.  And by that I mean one of those generic,
technology independent beasts that can be used in Freemarker and Velocity
as well as JSP.

thanks,

- Darren.

A Tag is simply a java interface:
http://java.sun.com/javaee/5/docs/api/javax/servlet/jsp/tagext/Tag.html

The life cycle of a tag is discussed in that javadoc.

There are a number of classes that make implementing your own pretty
straight forward.  You'll probably be interested in "BodyTagSupport".
