html taglibs

[pa...@barclays.co.uk]

Hi all,

apologies if this is an old question, but I've looked around and can't seem
to find what I want.

I'm trying to find a taglib which will allow me to write standard html tags,
with the facility to use EL within the attributes. For example, in order to
get a label assigned to a checkbox within an iterator tag I would like to
use something like this:

<c:forEach var="item" items="${container.list}" varStatus="iStatus">
  <html-el:checkbox name="item" styleId="cb${cStatus.count}" 
    property="status" indexed="true" value="on" />
  <xhtml-el:label for="cb${cStatus.count}"/>
    <c:out value="${item.label}" />
  </xhtml-el:label>
</c:forEach>

I have a similar need to control a <div> and other html tags in this way

Does anyone know of a taglib that will satisfy this need. If not, do you
think there would be backing for creating a new taglib project for one.

Thanks,
Pat

If the above doesn't work, it's probably because you're mixing literals and
expressions in your attribute values, and you appear to be referencing
'cStatus' after defining 'iStatus'. So, for example:

styleId="cb${cStatus.count}" --> styleId='${"cb" + iStatus.count}'
