The following example shows us how to parse an XML document:
The books.xml file code is as follows:
<books> <book> <name>Padam History</name> <author>ZARA</author> <price>100</price> </book> <book> <name>Great Mistry</name> <author>NUHA</author> <price>2000</price> </book> </books>
The main.jsp file code is as follows:
<%@ page language="java" contentType="text/html; charset=UTF-8"
pageEncoding="UTF-8"%>
<%@ taglib prefix="c" uri="http://java.sun.com/jsp/jstl/core" %>
<%@ taglib prefix="x" uri="http://java.sun.com/jsp/jstl/xml" %>
<html>
<head>
<title>JSTL x:parse 标签</title>
</head>
<body>
<h3>Books Info:</h3>
<c:import var="bookInfo" url="http://localhost:8080/books.xml"/>
<x:parse xml="${bookInfo}" var="output"/>
<b>The title of the first book is</b>:
<x:out select="$output/books/book[1]/name" />
<br>
<b>The price of the second book</b>:
<x:out select="$output/books/book[2]/price" />
</body>
</html>
The output result is as follows:
BOOKS INFO: The title of the first book is:Padam History The price of the second book: 2000
