The Null Tag

The "null" tag allows text that would normally be interpreted as Expressions not to be evaluated. This tag, in its form with a body, accepts no attributes. Without such a tag, an Expression that is not meant to be evaluated would be evaluated, and an error could result.

Attributes

  • The "null" tag supports all base tag attributes.
  • text: List Required, bodiless only. The text not to be evaluated, which gets left in the cell. Rich Text String formatting is preserved.

  ${NotEvaluated}!    

Bodiless

  <jt:null text="This is ${NotEvaluated}!"/>    

...gets transformed into...

  This is ${NotEvaluated}!
