Custom Tag with scriptlet Expression attribute not compiled correctly

           Summary: Custom Tag with scriptlet Expression attribute not
                    compiled correctly
           Product: Tomcat 4
           Version: 4.0.1 Final
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Windows NT/2K
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Major
          Priority: Other
         Component: Jasper
        AssignedTo: tomcat-dev@jakarta.apache.org
        ReportedBy: gwatts@onepipeline.com


A custom tag with a scriptlet expression for an attribute will compile the 
scriptlet attribute as a string, instead of a variable.

The code in the jsp:

<test:tasks command="<%=command%>">

The resulting compiled code:

_jspx_th_test_tasks_0.setCommand("<%=command%>");


>From Sun's site:
http://java.sun.com/products/jsp/tutorial/TagLibraries6.html

The following tag has an attribute named date, which accepts a String value 
obtained by evaluating the variable today: 

<tlt:greeting date="<%= today %>" />
