The title of this bug entry should start with "JSP 2.1" instead of "JSP 1.2". The attribute "trimDirectiveWhitespaces" is new in JSP 2.1.

Thanks Udo for correcting my typo.

Checked in changes to support trimDirectiveWhitespaces="(true|false)" (defaults to false) and deferredSyntaxAllowedAsLiteral="(true|false)" (defaults to false).

Unfortunately trimDirectiveWhitespaces is still reported as an error when used
in tag files. According to the spec this attribute is suported by the tag
directive, e.g.:
 <%@tag pageEncoding="UTF-8" trimDirectiveWhitespaces="true"%>

Can someone reopen this bug or should I add a new one?
(I'm using WTP 3.2 from the Helios 3.6M5 J2EE bundle, Mac OS X 64bit cocoa)
