JSP and XML

[Chinni Bujji]

Hi all,

Need a suggestion for doing this

In our application we have security issues
so depending on the role the index page for the user will change
that means user can see only the menus that are provided for him
we want to display the menus that are only enabled for him

so i have setup a xml file with the configuration of what role will have what menus and submenus.

so i want to pull the data from the xml file and display it on the jsp page.

so i need to display the menus as tabs on the jsp page.

suggest me an idea of how to do this.

If the data is in XML format, your best bet would be to employ the JSTL's XML set of tags.
