displaying XML in poerlet jsp

[ashwin_kp]

Hi,
I want to display a formatted-XML string in portlet-jsp page. its goiving an exception:

13:35:12,546 INFO [STDOUT] [Fatal Error] jstl::1:1: Content is not allowed in prolog.
13:35:12,546 ERROR [CommandFilter] Exception in command invocation
javax.servlet.ServletException: javax.servlet.jsp.JspException: Content is not allowed in prolog.

the code i wrote is :

<%@ page language="java" import="javax.portlet.*,java.util.*;" contentType="text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1"
 pageEncoding="ISO-8859-1"%>

<%@taglib uri="http://java.sun.com/portlet" prefix="portlet"%>

 <%@ taglib uri="http://java.sun.com/jsp/jstl/core" prefix="c" %>
 <%@ taglib uri="http://java.sun.com/jsp/jstl/xml" prefix="x" %>

<portlet:defineObjects />
<c:set var="someXML">
 <record>
 <name>Ashwin</name>
 <phone>040-23456789</phone>
 <fax>040-23456789</fax>
 <website>www.ashwin.com</website>
 <address1>Hyderabad</address1>
 <address2>Banjara Hills</address2>
 <address3>India</address3>
 </record>

 </c:set>

 <x:parse doc="${someXML}" var="test"/>

 <x:forEach select="$test/record">
 <x:out select="name" /><br>
 <x:out select="phone" /><br>
 <x:out select="website" /><br>
 <x:out select="address1" /><br>
 <x:out select="fax" /><br>
 <br>
 </x:forEach>

The same code works in stand-alone jsp.

Thanks ,
Ashwin.

Did you set the proper mime-type in the portlet.xml?

thanks roy.
but the jstl xml tag-lib never worked as i wanted. so i used apache xtags insted and it works now.

Thanks
Ashwin.
