doubt in c:remove

<c:set var='cart' value='Apple' scope='session'/>
<c:remove var='cart'/>
${sessionScope.cart}

The third line doesnt printAnything

I think if scope is not specified the default scope is page for the <c:remove/> tag

But the above code seems like it search in another scopes to remove the
scoped variable

Please clarify my point.Thanks in Advance

Hi James !!!

If you are using HFSJ, take a look to page 448 for <c:remove>.
There is a mistake on that page:

<c:remove var="userStatus" scope="request" />

Instead of what is writen about the scope, read:

The scope is optionnal and when is not specified, the attribute is removed from all scopes.

Check the HFSJ Errata

Hope it help.
