Problem with JSTL core library

913454Feb 13 2012 — edited Feb 21 2012
Hi All,

I am using JDK 1.6, Tomcat 6 and Eclipse 3.3.

New to JSP development. Trying to create a JSP page, which uses JSTL.

In Eclipse, when I added line

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

at the top of the page, it gives a Red cross on the left saying, 'Cannot find tag library descriptor for "http://java.sun.com/jstl/core"'.
Why is that?
In case of above syntax, will the JSP try to get the jar for the tag library actually from that location (URI) ?
What is the standard practise in case of big J2EE projects? where are all tag lib files kept?

Thanks in advance
