IBM extensions to JSP tags

WebSphere Application Server - Express also supports IBM extensions and additions to the JSP specification. See the following topics for more information about the IBM extensions and their syntax:

<tsx:dbconnect>
This tag specifies information that is needed to connect to a database.

<tsx:userid> and <tsx:passwd>
Use these tags as variables for user ID and password input.

<tsx:dbquery>
You can use this tag to query a database and return the results.

<tsx:dbmodify>
This tag allows you to add records to a database.

<tsx:repeat>
You can use this tag to iterate through a the results set of a database query.

<tsx:getProperty>
This tag gets the value of a bean to display in the JSP file.

Keep in mind that using the IBM extension tags in your JSP files diminishes their potential to be ported to a non-WebSphere application server.
