That is good news! When presented with a new framework to consider, easily
being able to present a dynamic web page is sort of a big deal.:rules: If
you look across the attributes/docs on the struts tags you find the primary
attributes key, name and id are sprinkled around placing the developer at
the mercy of trial and error. I seriously wonder if the best bet would be
to delete any struts custom tag that overlaps with JSTL and keep only those
integral to the framework itself. The StrutsRequestWrapper is already
making OGNL "JSTL friendly" and most of the time consuming riffraff has to
do with the bloody web page!
Look at how Struts Classic custom tags overlapped JSTL and all the confusion
that caused!
Peace,
