using EL function

[prakash chauhan]

Hi
I have the following code:

<logic:iterate id="teamUpdate" name="TEAMUPDATESLIST">
<html:link action="getUpdate" paramId="msgId" paramName="teamUpdate" paramProperty="msg_id">
 View</html:link></td>
<bean:write name="teamUpdate" property="postedBy"></bean:write></td>

${readStatus:GetUpdateReadStatus("${teamUpdate.msg_id}","123456")}

</logic:iterate>

The Line i am having problem with is:

${readStatus:GetUpdateReadStatus("${teamUpdate.msg_id}","027931")}

I have created an EL function that accepts two strings and tells whether the msg_id(which is first argument) has been read by the emp_id(which is the second id and has been hard -coded here)

but on executing the jsp i get the following error:

javax.servlet.ServletException: javax.servlet.jsp.el.ELException: An error occurred while evaluating function "readStatus:GetUpdateReadStatus"

I have tested my EL function and there is not problem with it .. as if i call the EL function with both the values hardcoded eg. ${readStatus:GetUpdateReadStatus("ab12","123456")
it prints the result , "READ" or "NOT READ"
the problem i having with is giving the value at runtime

I would appreciate any help
Thanks.

Try it this way:

${readStatus:GetUpdateReadStatus(teamUpdate.msg_id,"027931")}

This is a single EL xpression, so you don't need a second set of EL delimiters (${}).
