To implement a JSP custom tag with dynamic attributes (for example, to pass-thru arbitrary attributes not handled by the JSP tag):
Set the dynamic-attributes element to true in the TLD:
<tag>
<name>mark</name>
<tag-class>c...
The tag handler must implement javax.servlet.jsp.tagext.DynamicAttributes :
package com.example.jsp;
import java.io.*;

These bean types are essential for the Spring MVC framework. I copied them here from the Spring Documentation for quick reference. Bean type Explanation HandlerMapping Maps incoming requests to handlers and a list of pre- and post-processors (handler interceptors) based on some criteria the details of which vary by HandlerMapping implementation. The most popular implementation supports annotated controllers but other implementations exists as well. HandlerAdapter Helps the DispatcherServlet to invoke a handler mapped to a request regardless of the handler is actually invoked. For example, invoking an annotated controller requires resolving various annotations. Thus the main purpose of a HandlerAdapter is to shield the DispatcherServlet from such details. HandlerExceptionResolver Maps exceptions to views also allowing for more complex exception handling code. ViewResolver Resolves logical String-based...

This is a series of notes on building custom JSF 2.0 facelet taglibs, ordered from the simplest to the less simple. Hopefully it can help you to get started on how to build custom taglibs for JSF. A simple JSF facelets taglib example The simplest taglib I can think of. Using EL expression with a custom tag Make tag attributes dynamic. Mixing custom tag with facelet ui taglibs Discover things you might run into when you get into more details. Which EL context to use? Using the wrong EL context can lead to subtle bugs. JSF facelet taglib backed by a UI component A UIComponent can be a tag handler, without being TagHandler . Using tag handler, UI component and renderer with a JSF facelet...

This is an example that uses tag handler, UI component and renderer together to support a custom taglib. The main purpose is to show how these components play together.
The tag renders

<ul class="css class" extra...

The tags <x:parse> Parses an XML document. The document to be parsed can be specified by the doc attribute or enclosed as the body of the tag. The parsed document is exposed as the var attribute or the varDom attribute. When exposed as var , the type of the exposed object is implementation dependent; when exposed as varDom , the type of the exposed object is org.w3c.dom.Document . Objects exposed by var and varDom can both be used to set the context of an XPath expression. Syntax:
<x:parse doc="XMLDocument" {var="var" [sco... or, put the XML document in the element body: <x:parse {var="var" [scope="page|request|s... Attributes: Name Dynamic? Type Description doc true String , Reader Source XML document to be parsed. systemId true String The...
