Custom tags - how to modify body to include dynamic elements?

843835Sep 30 2002 — edited Oct 1 2002

Hi All,

I need to create a custom tag that can modify its body to include scriptlet elements. For example, if a JSP declaration looks like:

<cda:module />

In the custom tag implementation, I want to add dynamic scriptlet code such as

<%= new java.util.Date().toString()%>

I tried adding this extra code within the

doInitBody

method; however, while it seems to add the static text into the final output, the dynamic scriptlet code does not get evaluated at all.

Any help will be appreciated.

Thanks,

Raja
