Can't insert dynamic link in jstl

Wed Oct 22, 2008 1:13 am

I hope there's some jstl exprts here. I'm trying to insert a
dynamic link in an sql output table. Here's my test code:

Code:: <tr>  <c:forEach var="columnName" items="${name.columnNames}"> <c:choose> <c:when test="${columnName == 'uname'}"> <td><a link=edit.jsp>test got</a></td> </c:when> <c:otherwise> <td> <c:out value="${columnName}"/> </td> </c:otherwise> </c:choose> </c:forEach> </tr>

Everything works fine except the link tag and I'm clueless why it doesn't.
Any ideas?

This is an HTML problem, not JSTL.

The syntax of the <a> tag is wrong. It should be:

NOT

I always put quotes around all strings in HTML, JSTL, JSP, etc.
