A JSTL primer, Part 1: The expression language

Simplify software maintenance for JSP applications by avoiding scripting elements
Mark Kolb, Software Engineer
Summary:  The JSP Standard Tag Library (JSTL) is a collection of custom tag libraries that implement general-purpose functionality common to Web applications, including iteration and conditionalization, data management formatting, manipulation of XML, and database access. In this first installment of his new series on developerWorks, software engineer Mark Kolb shows you how to use JSTL tags to avoid using scripting elements in your JSP pages. You'll also learn how to simplify software maintenance by removing source code from the presentation layer. Finally, you'll learn about JSTL's simplified expression language, which allows dynamic attribute values to be specified for JSTL actions without having to use a full-blown programming language.
