The controller class looks like this,
import org.springframework.stereotype.Controller;
import org.springframework.web.bind.annotation.RequestMapping;
import org.springframework.web.servlet.ModelAndView;
import org.springframework.web.bind.annotation.RequestMethod;
@Controller
public class MainController {
@RequestMapping(value = "/chart", method = RequestMethod.GET)
public ModelAndView helloWorld() {
System.out.println("Controller accessed...");
String message = "<br><div style='text-align:center;'> CONTROLLER ACCESSED</div><br><br>";
return new ModelAndView("chart", "hello", message);
}
}
My jsp file, named "chart.jsp" looks like
<html>
<head>
<title>Spring MVC - Chart
Example</title>
</head>
<body>${hello}
<br>
<br>
<div style="font-family: verdana; padding: 10px; border-radius: 10px; font-size: 12px; text-align:center;">
Insert Chart here. ${hello}<br>
</div>
</body>
</html>
My problem now is that both "${hello}" in .jsp file stays as "${hello}" rather than the string I gave in index.jsp.
Also, the controller is accessed because the println printed successfully on the console.
ADDED: The web.xml looks like this as it could be the cause of the problem.

add this line to jsp on top this will do the trick. (adding as an answer for someone looking similar)
