Hello Ranchers,

I want to disable scripting in JSP file. The JSP 2.0 specs define a way to do so.

I have entered the following in the web.xml of my application

<

However, the scripts are not being ignored in my JSP's. They are working as normal. Can anyone suggest what might be wrong ?

Maybe your previous pages are still in the cache. If you're using Tomcat, go to "work\Catalina\localhost" and remove everything under "org\apache\jsp" of your application.

Hi,

I have tried clearing the cache under the work directory. But still the problem persists. Could this be something else ?

Oops, the tag is <scripting-invalid>, not <scriptlet-invalid>

As I pointed out in a previous post, try <scripting-invalid> instead of <scriptlet-invalid>

Well I thought <scripting-invalid> should have solved the problem but to my surprise, the problem still persists. I cleared the cache once again but the same results..

Did you check the logs ?

One more thing. Did you configure the web-app tag properly ?

<web-app xmlns="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/j2ee"
xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
xsi:schemaLocation="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/j2ee

Finally its working!! I updated the web-app tag to the one you pasted and restarted the container. Thank you very much.

But what exactly does the attributes in the <web-app> mean ?

It means that you are using version 2.4 of the servlets specifications.
The jsp-config tag was introduced from this version.
