GPS location taglib ver. 1.3

    Custom JSP tags library lets you extract coordinates (latitude and longitude) from GPS link, automatically published by the clients like Twittelator or TwitPic. So tag lets you build mashups for example. Tag decrypts short URL with location data and extracts geo coordinates from it:
 

Tags are:

Body tag lets you decrypt GPS location link and extract latitude and longitude. By default tag uses own body as a source url. Attributes are:

1) url Optional attribute. Describes a short URL
2) id Optional attribute. Describes a base name (prefix) for the page scope variables with the decrypted data. Tag creates two variables (type is java.lang.String) with suffixes _lat and _lng. Without this attribute tag simply prints data.
