            </form:form>
        </section>
    </body>
    </html>

while doing this jsp i got error, I am new to view part and have little to none knowledge of Jstl el but while learning spring I got stuck in this error which says

Multiple annotations found at this line:

> - Missing end tag for 
> "form:input"
>- Missing end tag for 
> "form:input"

Am I missing something, how to solve this? even a small hint is welcomed too

Thanks

Solution

  • el will also evaluate expressions in comments, so you have to make the tags in comments as it is in "normal" page

    Change

    <!-- Similarly bind <form:input> tag for
    name,unitPrice,manufacturer,category,unitsInStock and unitsInOrder
    fields-->

    to

    <!-- Similarly bind <form:input/> tag for
name,unitPrice,manufacturer,category,unitsInStock and unitsInOrder
fields-->
