jsp - How to store the body of a JSTL custom tag into a variable? -

i create custom jsp tag can used this:

<mytags:mytag>     <p>my content!</p> </mytags:mytag> 

in tag, process content of body use other attribute. so, tag definition - body not attribute something else.

mytag.tag:

<%@taglib prefix="mytags" tagdir="/web-inf/tags/mytags" %> <%@attribute name="body" required="true"%>  <div>   <c:if test="${fn:contains(body, 'test')}">     <p>found test string<p>   </c:if> </div> 

obviously, <jsp:dobody/> or <jsp:invoke fragment="body" /> not me. also, seem bit overly complicated create java tag purpose.

it possible capture body content using <jsp:dobody> action through var attribute demonstrated in this article. body content added attribute pagecontext of tag file , can accessed through expression.

mytag.tag

<%@ taglib prefix="c" uri="http://java.sun.com/jsp/jstl/core" %> <%@ taglib prefix="fn" uri="http://java.sun.com/jsp/jstl/functions" %>  <jsp:dobody var="body"/> <div>     <c:if test="${ fn:contains(body, 'test') }">         <p>found test string</p>     </c:if> </div>
