JSTL Implementation for J2EE 1.3

[Anthony Watson]

(My company has a J2EE 1.3 container)

I was looking at Sun's JSTL download page, and I saw that you can't actually download a jstl.jar. They make you either download j2ee or the web services developer's pack. I downloaded the developer's pack and found the jstl.jar after installing it.

Is there any problem using this jstl.jar? Should I use the jstl implementation from Jakarta instead?

I guess JSTL 1.1 is only compatible with J2EE 1.4?

I use the Jakarta implementation as it doesn't come bundled with all the other stuff that I don't need.

As far as versions are concerned: JSTL 1.0 with JSP 1.x, and JSTL 1.1 with JSP 2.0.
