Description

SBCLTER has a jsp application which uses jstl. The version of jstl needed depends on the tomcat and servlet versions. This is from http://jakarta.apache.org/taglibs/doc/standard-doc/intro.html:

Standard-1.1 (JSTL 1.1) requires a JSP container that supports the Java Servlet 2.4 and JavaServer Pages 2.0 specifications. Jakarta Tomcat 5 supports the new specifications. The Standard-1.1 taglib has been tested with Tomcat 5.0.3.
Standard-1.0 (implementation of the JSTL 1.0 specification) requires a JSP container that supports the Java Servlet 2.3 and JavaServer Pages 1.2 specifications. Jakarta Tomcat 4 supports these specifications. The Standard 1.0 taglib has been tested with Tomcat 4.1.24.

There are actually 2 jars: jstl.1.x.x.jar and standard.1.x.x.jar. Metacat 1.7 comes with the 1.0 libraries, and so I've had to switch to the 1.1 version. Also, the 1.0 and 1.1 jars can't both be included by default - only the correct one. (You probably already knew that, but it took me a day of head-scratching to get it).

The app that uses these libraries is at:

thanks!
