[jdom-interest] XML JSP dynamic HTML attributes solution?

[Jason Long]

Sorry about the typo I meant the following:

  <param name="Filename" value="<%=pathDWF%>" />

I have found a few solutions.

1. &lt;param name="Filename" value="<%=pathDWF%>" /&gt;
2. Modify Jasper to add the request time parameters.

I believe that the current spec for JSP is flawed by no allowing request
time parameters on all tags.
Some tags will allow the %=expression% syntax according to the spec, but
only certain ones.  Action tags
if I remember correctly.  I was thinking of making a custom tag that would
add the dynamic attribute base on
internal tags.  I do not want to have to do this.  I do not like either of
the hacks I found.  If anyone has dealt
with this please let me know.

I am using JDOM to generate many JSP pages in XML syntax.
Some the HTML tags have request-time attributes calculated.
This worked fine using the old JSP syntax as follows:

   <param name="Filename" value="<%=pathDWF%"> />

I am trying to get the following code to run:

   <param name="Filename" value="%=pathDWF%" />

The output is:

   <param name="Filename" value="%=pathDWF%" />


I really like the XML syntax, but i need to generate dynamic attributes for
HTML.  I would appreciate any advice you might have.
