Mark Thomas <ma...@apache.org> changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Status|NEW |RESOLVED Resolution|--- |INVALID --- Comment #2 from Mark Thomas <ma...@apache.org> --- Having searched the JSP 2.3[1] specification for "template" and reviewed all the occurrences this isn't as clear cut as I would like. There are quite a few references to EL being "in" template text which suggests that the EL is part of the template text. There are also several places that are explicit that EL is not template text as well as several places that are explicit that template text is passed straight through to the output without any processing - clerarly not the case for EL. On balance, while the number of references to EL being "in" template text out-number the number of references that state EL is not part of template text, my assessment of the intention of the JSP EG is that EL is not part of template text as all the explicit statements are that EL is not part of template text. I am therefore resolving this bug as INVALID. The simplest workaround is probably to use ${' '}. This is a matter of judgement and it is posisble that the JSP EG had the opposite intention. You may wish to raise an issue with the the JSP EG to seek clarification. If such clarification is forthcoming and it supports the validity of this bug then please feel free to re-open this bug (referencing the clarification) and we'll take another look. [1] The 2.3 specification is very, very similar to 2.2. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@tomcat.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@tomcat.apache.org
