Re: Best Approaches for passing jstl expressions to other non jstltags

[Henri Yandell <ba...@generationjava.com>]

If you're using JSP 2.0 [which you're probably not] you can just use the
variable. JSTL/JSP1.2 is an interim measure so things are a little clunky,
especially when it comes down to working with other taglibs.

The solution will be:

<vls:makecontent audience="${foo.audience}"  id="${id}" />

once JSP 2.0 rolls out into your favourite/just-have-use web container.
