tsx:repeat tag JavaServer Pages syntax

The <tsx:getProperty> tag repeats a block of HTML tagging. Use the <tsx:repeat> syntax to iterate over a database query results set. The <tsx:repeat> syntax iterates from the start value to the end value until one of the following conditions is met:

• The end value is reached.

• An exception is thrown.

If an exception of the types ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException or NoSuchElementException is created before a block completes, output is written only for the iterations up to and not including the iteration during which the exception was created. All other exceptions results in no output being written for that tag instance.

This section describes the syntax of the <tsx:repeat> tag:

<tsx:repeat index="name" start="starting_index" end="ending_index">
</tsx:repeat>

where:

• index

  Represents an optional name used to identify the index of this repeat block. The scope of the index is NESTED. Its type must be integer.

• start

  Represents an optional starting index value for this repeat block. The default is 0.

• end

  Represents an optional ending index value for this repeat block. The maximum value is 2,147,483,647.

  If the value of the end attribute is less than the value of the start attribute, the end attribute is ignored.
