JSP TUTORIAL
User-defined tags are known as custom tags. In this tutorial we will see how to create a custom tag and use it in JSP.
To create a custom tag we need three things:
1) Tag handler class: In this class we specify what our custom tag will do when it is used in a JSP page.
2) TLD file: Tag descriptor file where we will specify our tag name, tag handler class and tag attributes.
3) JSP page: A JSP page where we will be using our custom tag.
Example:
In the below example we are creating a custom tag MyMsg which will display the message “This is my own custom tag” when used in a JSP page.
Tag handler class:
A tag handler class should implement Tag/IterationTag/ BodyTag interface or it can also extend TagSupport/BodyTagSupport/SimpleTagSupportclass. All the classes that support custom tags are present insidejavax.servlet.jsp.tagext. In the below we are extending the classSimpleTagSupport.
Details.java
package beginnersbook.com;
import javax.servlet.jsp.tagext.*;
import javax.servlet.jsp.*;
import java.io.*;
public class Details extends SimpleTagSupport {
public void doTag() throws JspException, IOException {
/*This is just to display a message, when
* we will use our custom tag. This message
* would be displayed
*/
JspWriter out = getJspContext().getOut();
out.println("This is my own custom tag");
}
}
TLD File
This file should present at the location: Project Name/WebContent/WEB-INF/ and it should have a .tld extension.
Note:<name> tag: custom tag name. In this example we have given it as MyMsg<tag-class> tag: Fully qualified class name. Our tag handler classDetails.java is in package beginnersbook.com so we have given the value as beginnersbook.com.Details.
message.tld
<taglib>
<tlib-version>1.0</tlib-version>
<jsp-version>2.0</jsp-version>
<short-name>My Custom Tag</short-name>
<tag>
<name>MyMsg</name>
<tag-class>beginnersbook.com.Details</tag-class>
<body-content>empty</body-content>
</tag>
</taglib>
Using custom tag in JSP:
Above we have created a custom tag named MyMsg. Here we will be using it.
Note: taglib directive should have the TLD file path in uri field. Above we have created the message.tld file so we have given the path of that file.
Choose any prefix and specify it in taglib directive’s prefix field. Here we have specified it as myprefix.
Custom tag is called like this: <prefix:tagName/>. Our prefix is myprefixand tag name is MyMsg so we have called it as <myprefix:MyMsg/> in the below JSP page.
Output:
This is my own custom tag
