How to use JSTL taglib with struts html taglib

["White, Joshua A (HTSC, CASD)" <Jo...@thehartford.com>]

I would like to use the struts html taglig to generate a bunch of
checkboxes.  While the following is not correct, it encapsulates what I
would like to do:

<c:forEach items="${myForm.myInformationView}" var="basicView">
    <html:checkbox property="myItems" value="<c:out
value='${basicView.itemId}'/>"/><br>
</c:forEach>

I am looping throught the collection using the jstl forEach tag.  The
problem is that c:out is not evaluated as a runtime expression (actually, it
is not evaluated at all).  Using c:set to set a page level variable that you
could use in a runtime expression does not work either.

Is there a way to use both jstl and the struts html taglib here?  How can it
be done?

Regards, 

Joshua

Dear Joshua,

The html tags does not understand that expressions were passed and  
needs to be evaluated. The html-el tags will evaluate the run time 
expressions , where you do not even need JSTL .

please do this, i believe this will work,

* <html-el:checkbox property="myItems" value="${basicView.itemId}"/>
*
with regards,

Balaji*
