Expressions problem

[Peter Braun]

Hello,

I made the following JSP page:

 
<%@ page session="false"%>
 
<%@ taglib prefix="c" uri="http://java.sun.com/jstl/core" %>
<%@ taglib prefix="fmt" uri="http://java.sun.com/jstl/fmt" %>      
 
<c:forEach begin="1" end="10" var="a">
<c : out value="${a}"/>
</c:forEach>

When I try to reach this page I get an errormessage:
org.apache.jasper.JasperException: /WEB-INF/jsp/include.jsp(8,1) According to TLD or attribute directive in tag file, attribute value does not accept any expressions

If I don't use expressions it works. JSTL jar-s are included in my war file. I think I'm missing something, but don't know what.

Do you have idea?

Thanks in advance,
Peter

hi,

just check if EL is enabled in your page/web application.

at the page level, check if your page directive have "ELIgnored" as false, then it should work.
at web application level, check if there is any <iselignored> tag under jsp-property-group tag and it's value is false.

by default, el is enabled, so if you haven't specifically disabled it, the jsp should evaluate an el expression.

btw, there are spaces between ( c and : ) and ( : and out ) in "<c : out". i hope you don't have spaces in your real jsp.

What version of JSP are you using? This is a common error when mismatched versions of the JSTL and JSP are used.

See the JSP FAQ for more details.

P.S. The URIs that you are using indicate JSTL 1.0. If your container is JSP 2.0, you need to be using JSTL 1.1.
