Thanks. It is pretty clear that {name} is a variable. My question
should have been: How do I discover the valid values for {name} ?
The example I was looking at used {session-id} which is intuitively
linked to the session-id I would get from <session:get-attribute
name="session-id"/>. Is my inference correct? Does it therefore follow
that I can use any attribute from the session context ? If I set a
session attribute named 'fred' with the value 'flintstone' does {fred}
evaluate to 'flintstone' in a sitemap ?
Is the definition of {name} documented anywhere ? Is there any way of
enumerating defined names ?
