Hi,
I'm trying to deploy the simple hello1 web project from the J2EE 1.4 tutorial on JBoss 4.0.2. Although it deploys fine and I can access the page, the behavior is not correct. When I enter some text and hit submit, then the text "Hello <some text>" should also be displayed on the page. However, this does not happen, which leaves me to believe that the JSTL tags are not being evaluated.
This is the index.jsp:
<%@ taglib uri="http://java.sun.com/jsp/jstl/core" prefix="c" %>
<%@ taglib uri="http://java.sun.com/jsp/jstl/functions" prefix="fn" %>
<html>
<head><title>Hello</title></head>
<body bgcolor="white">
<img src="duke.waving.gif">
<h2>Hello, my name is Duke. What's yours?</h2>
<form method="get">
<input type="text" name="username" size="25">
<p></p>
<input type="submit" value="Submit">
<input type="reset" value="Reset">
</form>
<c:if test="${fn:length(param.username) > 0}" >
<h2><font color="black">Hello, ${param.username}!</font></h2>
</c:if>
</body>
</html>
This is the web.xml in use:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE web-app
PUBLIC "-//Sun Microsystems, Inc.//DTD Web Application 2.3//EN"
"http://java.sun.com/dtd/web-app_2_3.dtd">
<web-app>
<display-name>hello1</display-name>
<taglib>
<taglib-uri>http://java.sun.com/jsp/jstl/core</taglib-uri>
<taglib-location>/WEB-INF/tld/c.tld</taglib-location>
</taglib>
<taglib>
<taglib-uri>http://java.sun.com/jsp/jstl/functions</taglib-uri>
<taglib-location>/WEB-INF/tld/fn.tld</taglib-location>
</taglib>
</web-app>
I've packaged everything in a war with the web.xml file under WEB-INF, the tld files under WEB-INF/tld and the jstl.jar and standard.jar under WEB-INF/lib.
Any ideas on what's going on?
Thanks,
Tai
