Re: FO Tag Library (problem with jsp1.1)

[Stefan Kost <s....@webmacher.de>]

Hi Hi,

answering my own post. The problem (see cited part at the bottom) is due
to that jsp 1.1 does not allow nested body tags witch flush their
buffers. It's been said that this will work with jsp 1.2 (as found in
tomcat 4.X), but I am unable to verify this at the moment as there are a
few bugs in the tomcat 4.x class loader (class cast exception for
xerces.jar).
Does anyone know a workaround for this ?

  And errm, what about taglib inclusion ? (there have be two +1s)
  - if   you have anything against it, please tell me - so that
  we can argue about it.
