[Shale] jsp vs. jspx

[James Reynolds <Ja...@intermountainmail.org>]

As part of converting my app from vanilla faces to Shale, I decided to
convert my jsp files to jspx for two reasons.  First, to prevent someone
else from employing scriplets in the future and, second, because I've
read that it's a good idea (maybe I've been reading all the wrong
stuff).

Now I'm running into some newbie problems getting jspx pages to display
correctly so I'm starting to second guess myself.  Is there any
advantage one way or the other as far as Shale is concerned?

Thanks

On the second - I've used jspx files when the markup emitted is XML
based -- such as XHTML, VoiceXML or WML rendering. It takes better
care of well-formedness concerns (plus the root element doesn't even
have to be <jsp:root>, which is beautiful).

On the first - Thats good, but what about <jsp:scriptlet> ? ;-)

Probably not, but my experience with using jspx files has been similar
(there are probably more "issues" with container processing of jspx
files than jsp files -- regardless of container). Shale shouldn't
care.
