T hanks Mark, I have added the jars exactly the way you have given
suggestions.but for some reasons

<%@ taglib uri="..." %>

is not getting created for my pages.

Let me try to create a simple test case outside the project and see if
it is installed correctly.

  Subject: How to I add JSTL Lib to Tomcat with Netbeans

  Hi

  I have jstl-api-1.2 and jstl-impl-1.2 jars in web/lib folder for my
project
  setting.Is this the right setting to add JSTL jars or I need to add
this to
  tomcats's lib directory ?

  I am using netbeans 7.01 with tomcat 7.0.11 on windows 7.For some
reasons I feel
  that jstl lib is not used by my app and jstl tags are getting ignored.

  Can someone point me to right way to add jstl lib with tomcat ?

  Thanking you
  Kiran Badi
  In Netbeans, you don't add jar files directly to WEB-INF/lib of your
project. Netbeans does this for you when you build the war file.
  If you're running a regular Netbeans (ant) project, then do the
following:
  1. Right-mouse click on the Libraries node of your project
  2. Select Add libraries
  3. Scroll down until you see the JSTL library
  4. Select it and add it

  This will add both the standard tag jar and jstl jar to your project.
Netbeans will complete<%@ taglib uri="..." %>   for you as well
as all the tags once you add the taglib line to your JSP file.
  If you're running a Maven project, then you need to edit your pom.xml
file. The two dependencies go in the dependencies element and will be built into
your war file under the target directory.
  Again, once Netbeans knows the libraries are a part of your project
(sometimes you have to refresh the project) code completion will work as
expected.
  In both cases, everything works as expected on the server.

  This is my normal (occasional) development environment:

  Platform:  Windows/XP Professional SP 3 or Fedora 15
  JVM:       JRE/JDK 1.6.0_29
  Maven:     3.0.3
  Servers:   Tomcat 5.5.34, Tomcat 6.0.33, Tomcat 7.0.22, Glassfish 3.1

  Given my limited use, this works pretty well.

  just my two cents . . . .

You actually have to type that in. However, Netbeans will auto-complete the URI 
for you, and suggest all of the possible URI combinations when you hit 
Ctrl-space.

So, when you create a new JSP page, you will have to do the following (after 
you have the libraries added):

1. type in<%@ taglib u(ctrl-space)

Netbeans will then auto-complete with uri="" and position the cursor in between 
the quotes

2. type ctrl-space again, and you will get a list of all the possible URIs

3. Pick the right URI (scroll down) and press enter.

4. Press ctrl-space again, and prefix="" will appear (since it's required)

5. Fill in the prefix (c is commonly used for the common tags)

Done . . .

Now Netbeans will auto-complete tags on that page, and Tomcat will use those 
tags in your application.

As an aside - don't cc: me and mail to the list. I get everything on the list. 
I get tons of mail daily, and extra mail doesn't guarantee a faster or more 
personal response.

just my two cents . . . .
