logic tag and empty string value ("") problem

Hi,

the following declaration does not compile on iPlanet 6.0 SP2:

<logic:equal name="something" value="">
	...
</logic:equal>

here's a snippet of the generated java file:

((org.apache.struts.taglib.logic.EqualTag)_JSP__0).setName("sqc_submenu_
currentitem");
((org.apache.struts.taglib.logic.EqualTag)_JSP__0).setValue("" >
<td width=");

It's like the JSP parser does not like empty string in tag attributes...
anybody had this problem before with iPlanet?  any workaround?

Thanks

Andre Paradis

The workaround is to use a scriplet:

<logic:equal name="something" value="<%=""%>">

kinda silly - but it works!
