JSTL Quick Reference

This chapter serves as a quick reference to the JavaServer Pages Standard Tag Library (JSTL). The purpose of this quick reference is to help look up syntax, actions, and attribute values as well as to find answers to simple questions that may arise during active development. The reference is not meant to be an in-depth description of the features covered in this book. The following conventions have been used throughout this section: “A” represents variable A, which may also be referred to as varA in some samples. “B” represents variable B, which may also be referred to as varB in some samples. For any action that has a scope attribute, page scope is the default. This information is based on the contents of the JSTL 1.0 final release specification.
