I think the reason it won't work is because you're trying to nest a custom tag in a custom tag. If you were putting your c
ut in a regular html tag, it would be just fine (assuming you're not doing
JSP documents, aka XML format).
However, I think that c
ut has the ability to save the value to a variable instead of sending it to the response. At that point, you could reference the variable in the "outside" c
ut. Check out the docs for c
ut, because I can't recall what the name of the attribute is that would allow you to do this.
