Random tag library - dynamic range

Howdy,

 

I've been having difficulties with the random taglib. I'm interested in
getting a random number using a dynamic range. However I can't find a way to
do that.

 

I've tried

 

<c:set var="top" value="43" />

 

<rand:number id="randNumber" range="1-${top}" />

 

Didn't work. Syntax error.

 

I've also tried

 

<c:set var="range" value="1-43" />

 

<rand:number id="randNumber" range="${range}" />

 

Didn't work either. Couldn't find anything relevant on the web. Would love
some help with that.

 

Thanks,

Eran Kalmanson
