Menu Display

Hello,

I am getting the following error which i am unable to resolve :
menudisplay.jsp (line: 32, column: 2) According to TLD or attribute directive in tag file, attribute items does not accept any expressions

on this line ${repository.topMenus}.

I have added jstl1.2 and jstl standard jar files in lib. i am using tomcat7 and following are the entries done:

In jsp page

<%@ page isELIgnored ="false" %>
<%@taglib prefix="c" uri="http://java.sun.com/jsp/jstl/core_rt" %>

In web.xml

<web-app xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xmlns="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee" xmlns:web="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee/web-app_3_0.xsd" xsi:schemaLocation="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee/web-app_3_0.xsd" id="WebApp_ID" version="3.0">

<jsp-config>
<taglib>
<taglib-uri>http://java.sun.com/jsp/jstl/core_rt</taglib-uri>
<taglib-location>/WEB-INF/c.tld</taglib-location>
</taglib>
</jsp-config>

<listener>
<listener-class>net.sf.navigator.menu.MenuContextListener</listener-class>
</listener>

Please let me know where am i going wrong asap.

This:

<%@taglib prefix="c" uri="http://java.sun.com/jsp/jstl/core_rt" %>

is very, very wrong.

That is not the URI for the JSTL 1.2.

A quick google search should show you the correct URI.

Is this the only thing where i am going wrong?

Is the rest of the things which I have specified right?

Fix that error and then try again. You'll let us know.

having entries for the tag library in your web.xml file is not required, and in fact undesirable.
I would recommend removing the <tag-lib> section from web.xml.

The isElIgnored directive should not be required.
EL should be enabled by default

Ah yes, I missed those. Remove all unnecessary goop.
