c:remove custom tag

[Sophie Angela]

<c:remove var="s">cool</c:remove>

s is a session scoped attribute..
will this tag remove the session scoped attribute s?

[Christophe Verré]

"remove" is not supposed to have a body.

Let's asuume that you remove the body. If you don't specify the scope in the "remove" tag, the process will be the same as calling PageContext.removeAttribute.
So check the API for removeAttribute, and you'll get your answer

I agree with Satou kurinosuke.

c:remove will remove attrbutes in any scope.
It will only call : JspContext.removeAttribute(String attribute);

So suppose if the attribute "s" exists in multiple scopes, only the first one encountered would be removed, or all of them would be removed?

[Micheal John]

in this case with scope page will be removed..
the order is page > request > session > application

So suppose if the attribute "s" exists in multiple scopes, only the first one encountered would be removed, or all of them would be removed?

All of them will be removed.
Accrding to API doc:

Remove the object reference associated with the given name from all scopes.
