jstl, struts tags will not propagate to the browser. These tags will be transformed to html at server side and the browser will receive html only.

Actually your question is not very clear to me and hope this helps..

I guess there's nothing stopping you from doing something like this..



you could try this out.. But the "s:" part could be problem..

Suppose you are able to add <s:textfield key="user" /> to the html dom, what do you hope to achieve by doing this?

What Gamini is trying to explain, I think, is that by the time any Javascript code runs, the JSP and JSTL processing has already finished generating the HTML and sending it to the browser. That Javascript can only operate on the generated HTML and nothing else.

Anyway this is clearly a question about Javascript. Let's move it to the correct forum.
