Hi All,


I have the below code with spaces on uri and prefix (directive attribute).



Could you please help on how to fix without altering the JSP? Can i handle with web.xml or any other property available.

I have hundreds of jsp like this and wanted to handle without code fixes.

I tried JSP trimSpaces but it fixes the namespace but not the attributes.



Thanks.

No. You'll need to edit the JSPs.

This can be done in seconds using a global search and replace.

Is it an option to do a global search and replace on the JSP directory and actually get rid of the whitespace? (There are several ways of doing that from a tech perspective - in Eclipse, at the command line, etc). If there isn't a strict policy saying you can't touch the JSPs, you are better off going with an actual fix rather than a hack.

You can't fix it without changing the JSPs. It doesn't matter how badly you wish otherwise.

Both Jeanne and I have pointed out that this can be done in seconds with an editor. Why is that a problem?
