jsp tag library

[Syed Saifuddin]

Hi Everybody

What is the special use of this tag <jsp:root>. I get the following statement in my new project written in each jsp file.


<jsp:root version="2.0" xmlns:jsp="http://java.sun.com/JSP/Page" xmlns:cms="urn:jsptld:cms-taglib" xmlns:cmsu="urn:jsptld:cms-util-taglib" xmlns:c="urn:jsptld:http://java.sun.com/jsp/jstl/core">

if anybody can help me.

Thank You

jsp:root is used to identify JSP Documents, which means that the file must comply with the XML syntax.

Note that your root is declaring three taglib namespaces :
"cms" is associated to "cms-taglib",
"cmsu" is associated to "cms-util-taglib"
and "c" is associated to "http://java.sun.com/jsp/jstl/core"

So you can use those three libraries' tags in the jsp document.

Thank You

I understand a bit but need more clearance I mean when we use <anything: >
anything must be a taglib define earlier. But here no jsp as a tag ia define.

Thank You

The jsp actions are pre-defined.
