Yes, I believe, they relate to the underlying javax.servlet.ServletRequest attributes.
Use them for whatever takes your fancy. See the Servlet Spec/API for more details -----Original Message----- From: David Rosenstrauch [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: 05 December 2001 17:14 To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Request attributes? A bit confused. Looking at org.apache.cocoon.environment.Request (basically it's just a ServletRequest object). I see that a Request has both parameters and attributes. I know what request parameters are. These are the form values in your HTML form that get submitted to the servlet. But what are request attributes? I don't know how it works elsewhere, but at least with Cocoon these seem to always be empty. 1) What are they for? 2) Am I allowed to use these for my own personal use; i.e., as sort of a temporary storage area? (e.g., request.setAttribute(String name, Object o) ) TIA!
