title: Spring form tag and HTML 5 still incompatible?
body: <p>I am using a spring form tag</p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;%@ taglib uri="http://www.springframework.org/tags/form" prefix="form" %&gt;
  
  &lt;form:input path="name.lastName" cssClass="text" maxlength="30"/&gt;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>When I try to add the new required html5 attribute</p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;form:input path="name.lastName" required="required" cssClass="text" maxlength="30"/&gt;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I get this error message when the jsp is converted to html</p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;pre&gt;org.apache.jasper.JasperException: /WEB-INF/pages/admission/registration/patientForm.jsp(168,5) PWC6131: Attribute required invalid for tag input according to TLD
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Are the springframework tags ready for html 5 ? If yes, how do i use them ?</p>
  
  <p>I am using spring 2.5 </p>
