Using c:if

[Rajesh Khan]

I am having a problem testing the value of a variable using c:if i am currently trying something like (if val variable in request scope is equal to hello)

<c:if test="${requestScope.val}==\"hello\"" >
	 Display this
       </c:if>

[Bear Bibeault]

<c:if test="${requestScope.val=='hello'}" >

Just do the obvious thing. (The obvious thing doesn't include escaping of quotes, or whatever those backslashes are for.)

<c:if test="${requestScope.val=='hello'}" > worked

 <c:if test="${requestScope.val == 'hello'}" >  

concentrate above idiom! :)
