Expression Language follows ECMAScript (the standardized version of JavaScript) in unifying the treatment of the . and [] operators. expr-a.identifier-b is equivalent to expr-a[identifier-b]. The following steps are used to evaluate expr-a[expr-b]: Evaluate expr-a into value-a If value-a is null, return null. Evaluate expr-b into value-b If value-b is null, return null. Process according to type of value-a If value-a is a Map: If !value-a.containsKey(value-b) then return null. Otherwise, return value-a.get(value-b). If value-a is a List or array: Coerce value-b to int (if coercion cant be performed raise error). If value-a.get(value-b) or Array.get(value-a, value-b) throws ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException or IndexOutOfBoundsException return null (if other exception thrown, raise error). Otherwise, return value-a.get(value-b) or Array.get(value-a, value-b), as appropriate. If value-a is a JavaBeans object Coerce value-b to String If value-b is a readable property of value-a return result of the value-b getter (if this throws an exception, raise error) Otherwise raise an error. Expressions may also contain parentheses. Strings may be enclosed by quotation marks or apostrophes. Either can be escaped with a backslash if necessary, but it is not necessary to escape apostrophes appearing inside strings enclosed by quotation marks, or vice versa. The empty operator can evaluate whether an object is empty or null. empty obj returns true if obj is any of the following: null a String of length zero a Map, Collection or array with no elements You may sometimes see a JSP tag referred to as an action and vice-versa. More precisely, an action is the function performed by a specific tag. The first group of standard stags mentioned above has to do with bean access from JSP pages. The second group has to do with interaction between JSP pages and other web resources. Both of these groups have already been discussed. The last group of tags have to do with plugins. The plugin tag gener
