c:out and \n

[zze-JEANJEAN S ext FTRD/DMI/SOP <sj...@rd.francetelecom.com>]

Hi,

The c:out tag convert special characters to character entities, why not
do the same thing with \n (to <br/>) ?
Is there a tag to convert \n to <br/> ??

Thanks,

Stephane

Because such a translation isn't general-purpose or based on the rules of
XML; JSTL isn't tied to HTML specifically.

You should be able to use the String Taglib or the Regexp Taglib.
