           Summary: Incorrect parsing of tag attributes
           Product: Tomcat 5
           Version: 5.0.28
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Windows XP
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: Jasper
        AssignedTo: tomcat-dev@jakarta.apache.org
        ReportedBy: ian@ontopia.net


I get a org.apache.jasper.JasperException: with the error: "The function string 
must be used with a prefix when a default namespace is not specified" when 
trying to compile the following within a JSP page:

<foo:set var="bar" value="this $ is a { silly string ("/>

"foo" is our own tablib, it seems that Jasper seems to think that the string 
provided to the value attribute contains some JSP/EL which it does not.

If I change the page to be:

<c:set var="bar" value="this $ is a { silly string ("/>

Then I do not get this error. However I need to use my own taglib.
In the foo.tld file, the "value" attribute of "set" has rtexprvalue=true.
If I set this to false then the problem goes away. However I noticed that c.tld 
in standard.jar also has rtexprvalue=true for the "value" attribute of "set". 
Why the difference in behaviour ? We also wish to have rtexprvalue=true.
