Checks if the token is a runtime expression.
In standard JSP syntax, a runtime expression starts with '<%' and
ends with '%>'. When the JSP document is in XML syntax, a runtime
expression starts with '%=' and ends with '%'.

@param token The token to be checked
return whether the token is a runtime expression or not.
Checks if the token is a runtime expression . In standard JSP syntax a runtime expression starts with <% and ends with % > . When the JSP document is in XML syntax a runtime expression starts with % = and ends with % .
