I'd suggest using nested <xsp:attribute> tags:

<cookie:create name="User">
    <xsp:attribute name="value">
        <request:get-remote-user/>
    </xsp:attribute>
</cookie:create>

Causes a compile error - without the value= attribute, the xsp generator
adds a call to :

String.valueOf()

to the generated java file. Hmm. Maybe a bug in the taglib? creating the
whole element set with xsp:element and xsp:attribute. But *THAT* just
results in the cookie:* elements being generated in the final XML doc, and
not processed by XSP.

Bugger. Anyone used this library, and if so, got any examples?
