EL expressions are quite useful keep your jsps more readable and maintainable. Yesterday I faced a problem with new project. EL expressions in my jsp are not getting evaluated although I have set the attribute in request.
In servlet :
request.setAttribute(message,”Hello World!”);
In JSP :
${message}
On HTML it is being rendered as : ${HTML}
If you are also facing the same problem use following page directive at top of the page :
That will solve the problem.
