concatenate strings

[James Norman <ja...@perceptive.com>]

Hi All,
I have two variables that I set using the c:set tags.

<c:set var="variable1" value="someValue" />
<c:set var="variable2" value="1" />

And I want to concatenate the two and store the value in another var.
<c:setl var="varSum" value="${variable1 + variable2}" />

But this blows up with an error message.  Any ideas?

Thanks,
James Norman

Just do:

<c:setl var="varSum" value="${variable1}${variable2}" /> ??


Think that would work.
