  1. POjsp:text losing whitespace inside tagx
    text
    copied!<p>Trying to use JSPX and running into a strange problem. Text inside jsp:text is supposed to not be subject to whitespace removal, according to the JSP documentation, but when I have a jsp:text element with leading whitespace in the beginning of a tagx file, when used in the jspx views, the leading whitespace disappears.</p> <p>I've done quite a bit of Googling but can't find what's causing this to be removed. I've verified that the same jsp:text instances included directly in the jspx view work correctly, but put into a separate tagx file causes it to be lost.</p> <p>This is under Jetty 6.1.19 and 6.1.22 using JSP 2.1 libraries.</p> <p><strong>EDIT</strong>: Some sample code follows. Note that the spaces leading and trailing within the <code>&lt;jsp:text&gt;</code> tags are stripped. Judging by the JSP documentation I can see, whitespace within those should be retained.</p> <p>WEB-INF/tabs/nameValuePair.tagx:</p> <pre><code>&lt;jsp:root version="2.0" xmlns:jsp="http://java.sun.com/JSP/Page"&gt; &lt;jsp:directive.attribute name="name" type="java.lang.String" required="true"/&gt; &lt;jsp:directive.attribute name="value" type="java.lang.String" required="true"/&gt; &lt;jsp:text&gt; ${name}=${value} &lt;/jsp:text&gt; &lt;/jsp:root&gt; </code></pre> <p>test.jspx:</p> <pre><code>&lt;jsp:root version="2.0" xmlns:jsp="http://java.sun.com/JSP/Page" xmlns:t="urn:jsptagdir:/WEB-INF/tags"&gt; &lt;jsp:directive.page contentType="text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1" /&gt; &lt;html&gt; &lt;head&gt; &lt;title&gt;Test&lt;/title&gt; &lt;/head&gt; &lt;body&gt; &lt;t:nameValuePair name="name" value="Google" /&gt; &lt;t:nameValuePair name="age" value="11" /&gt; &lt;t:nameValuePair name="description" value="Popular Search Engine" /&gt; &lt;jsp:text&gt; test=value &lt;/jsp:text&gt; &lt;/body&gt; &lt;/html&gt; &lt;/jsp:root&gt; </code></pre> <p>output:</p> <pre><code>&lt;html&gt;&lt;head&gt;&lt;title&gt;Test&lt;/title&gt;&lt;/head&gt;&lt;body&gt;name=Googleage=11description=Popular Search Engine test=value &lt;/body&gt;&lt;/html&gt; </code></pre>
