Well, well the JSP interpreter converts your line above to servlet methods,
it'll usually use a javaserver-specific method. For instance, it might turn
it into something like this:

writeToStream(whatever_you_have_in_<%=%>);

So, it's possible that you just can't use that type of expression within <%=
and %> in JRun's output method... depending on how it parses things. You
will want to find the .java file that is created from your JSP code and post
the relevant servlet code if you can't figure out what is up. It's possible
that it's creating something like:

writeToStream(((rsReleaseSummaries.getObject("PRID")!=null)?rsReleaseSummari
es.getObject("PRID"):""))

which might be screwing things up.

Also, try this:

<%
String sPRID = rsReleaseSummaries.getObject("PRID");
if (sPRID != null) out.println(sPRID);
%>
