3 This is a JSP issue. I have unsuccessfully searched for a JSP
4 support forum so I figured I will start here since the Tomcat
5 container processes JSP. If this is question is inappropriate,
6 I apologize. If you can point me to a better forum, please do.
8 The environment is Tomcat 6.0.18 on Linux using Firefox 2.0.
I'm writing my first JSP program and I'm having a problem
with the <c:when> construct. I have a bean that contains
a property named 'midContent'. When the program segment
is entered, the bean, BFSInfo, has it's midContent property
set to 'page2'. The when tag test evaluates to false, yet
the code within the when tag is executed. Here is the
code segment:
18 <c:choose>
19 <c:when test="${BFSInfo.midContent == 'page1'}">
20 T/F = ${BFSInfo.midContent == 'page1'}
21 <br></br>
22 INFO EL is ${BFSInfo.midContent}
23 </c:when>
24 ...
25 </c:choose>
When run, the lines inside the 'when' construct print the
following on the web page:
31 T/F = false
32 INFO EL is page2
The test expression of line 19 is evaluated again at
line 20 and the result is 'false' as shown at line 31.
The output produced by line 22 is shown at
line 32 and confirms that the value of midContent is 'page2'.
Can someone explain why the code inside
the '<c:when>' tag is executed when
the test on line 19 appears to be evaluating to false?
Thanks you in advance.
