Jetty 7 hightide distribution, JSP and JSTL support

Question

I\'ve been struggling with Jetty 7 and its support for JSP and JSTL.

My JSP file:

<%@ page language=\"java\" contentType=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\"          


        

Answer 1

With Jetty 8, the situation is a bit different, in case this helps anyone.

For JSTL 1.2, rather surprisingly, the taglib has to be:

<%@ taglib prefix="c" uri="http://java.sun.com/jstl/core" %>

with JSTL 1.2 from (mavenishly):

 
    javax.servlet
    jstl
    1.2
 

I can't really explain why the URL lacks 'jsp', but it works this way.
