JSTL: remove last item from array

Was wondering if it's possible to remove the last item from an array using JSTL? Currently I'm using c:url to append parameters (from an array) to a hyperlink. I want to be able to remove the last parameter as well...

Here is the code for the c:url to append parameters

 <c:url value="search" var="url">
     <c:param name="q" value="${q}"/>
     <c:if test="${fn:length(fq) > 0}">
     <c:forEach var="field" items="${fq}">
         <c:param name="fq" value="${field}"/>
     </c:forEach>
     </c:if>
 </c:url>
