+        <para>
+            This tag is used to determine whether its contents should be evaluated or not. In Spring Security
+            3.0, it can be used in two ways <footnote><para>The legacy options from Spring Security 2.0 are also supported,

+            specified in the <literal>access</literal> attribute of the tag.
