Is my use of c:if correct ?

[surendar prabu]

I am using JSTL c:if to compare values of two properties. But i dont find any difference in the outout. some one pls help me on this. i have given the code below. If this cannot work, then i will go for adding a method to my Action Form which returns me a boolean.

<logic:iterate property="collection1" id="collection" name="MyForm">
<td><bean:write name="collection" property="property1"/></td>
<c:if test="${MyForm.property4 == collection.property2}">
<td><bean:write name="collection" property="property2"/></td>
</c:if>
<td><bean:write name="collection" property="property3"/></td>
</logic:iterate>

Here i have a property4 in my ActionForm MyForm and some properties in the bean reperesented by collection. Now if property4 of MyForm and property2 of collection are equal then only i should draw the 'td' field.
But irrespective of any condition i am getting the output.
Should I use c:forEach instead of struts logic?
please help me on this regard.

regards,

Try something like this

<logic:iterate property="collection1" id="collection" name="MyForm">
<td><bean:write name="collection" property="property1"/></td>
<c:choose>
  <c:when test="${MyForm.property4 == collection.property2}">
     <td><bean:write name="collection" property="property2"/></td>
  </c:when>
  <c :o therwise> 
     <td>&nbsp;</td>
  </c :o therwise>
</c:choose>
<td><bean:write name="collection" property="property3"/></td>
</logic:iterate>
