I know I'll look back on this learning curve with a head-slapping
recollection, but until then, for posterity:
1. If I remove the taglib directive in the JSP, the various <c:> tags
are copied directly into the html output, with the browser doing its
best to just ignore them. The plaintext tag body content is actually
rendered, again, the result of the browser doing its best with what it
considers unknown markup.
2. When I put the taglib directive back in, the JSP compiles and
subsequently does something with the <c:> tag directives, as the tags are
no longer copied into the resultant html and the default <c:otherwise>
always seems to execute. Nor do I receive any exception output in the
browser or in the catalina.out logfile.
Whatever is misconfigured in my app is not a completely fatal situation:
I just can't get at the scripting variables to do meaningful operations
on them.
