JSP 1.2 spec section 10.2.2 - BodyTag

           Summary: JSP 1.2 spec section 10.2.2 - BodyTag
           Product: Tomcat 4
           Version: 4.1.18
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: Other
         Component: Servlet & JSP API
        AssignedTo: tomcat-dev@jakarta.apache.org
        ReportedBy: dave.whitla@ocean.net.au


The Catalina servlet container does not call the doAfterBody() method of a 
BodyTag handler if the BodyTag's corresponding XML tag in the JSP is empty.  
While this may seem sensible, it is required by the JSP spec that 
setBodyContent(), initBody() and doAfterBody() are called if the return value 
from doStartTag() is EVAL_BODY_BUFFERED.  In such a case the container should 
push an empty BodyContent object onto the pageContext BodyContent stack.  This 
may break (has broken) web apps implementing custom tag handlers that conform 
to the standard.
