extra white space in textarea

<textarea>
<c:forEach var="item" items="${items}">
<c:out value="welcome"/>
</c:forEach>
</textarea>

This gives unnecessary white spaces in the text area. Remove the extra white space between textarea tags. Although this might sound crazy, this works.

<textarea><c:forEach var="item" items="${items}"><c:out value="welcome"/></c:forEach></textarea>

xmlbeans runtime error NoSuchMethodError

You might get this run time error when you have two copies of proj-xmlbeans.jar on your classpath, one of which is a old one. 

check your APP-INF directory. In my case, APP-INF is the culprit. It has the new generated xmlbeans version and the old one as well.
