SE452: Homework [14/14] Previous pageContents

Goal: To write a simple tag library from scratch.

  1. Create a tag library that solves a display problem for your application. The key is to look for scriptlets in your JSP, or complicated logic that is needed to provide part of your presentation layer. If you don't have any good candidates in your current code, add something.
  2. The tag can be any of the tag types, including SimpleTag
  3. Write the tag library descriptor.
  4. Add a reference to your tag library in web.xml
  5. Use the tag library in a JSP.

Supply the application as a deployable war file. Test deploying it before submitting it to make sure you have the format right. Place the source files for the servlet in a src directory in the war file. Please link the homework assignment to the index.html file in the document root.
