JSTL startup question

[Kevin Passey <ke...@kdpsoftware.co.uk>]

Hi - I wonder if anyone can shed any light on this.

I have started to read JSTL in action by Shawn Bayern.

I have set up Tomcat5 and mysql on my XP machine and it all works fine - so
I have my development environment.

I have downloaded and published the JSTL1.1.2 zip - and that all seems to
work fine.

I have taken the jars from the un-packed web-app and they work fine.

But..................

When I read the book - it states that I should have <%@ taglib
uri="http://java.sun.com/jstl/core" prefix="c" %>

in the page  which I have and it works

But.................

In the download document (which I expect to be more up-to-date) it states
that I should have <%@ taglib uri="http://java.sun.com/jsp/jstl/core"
prefix="c" %>

(Additional jsp in the path).

And................

Only the former works...

Would anybody be so good as to comment.

Kind regards

Kevin

Open standard.jar that came with JSTL1.1.2 zip, browse to the
META-INF folder and open c.tld. In there near the top you'll
see a tag <uri>http://java.sun.com/jsp/jstl/core</uri> that's
the URI to use in your JSP pages -

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

What Servlet spec are you working against...? 2.3 or 2.4...?

Cheers,
