I prefer the "search".equals(<xsp-request:get-parameter name="todo"/>) 
form, since it will never throw a NullPointerException.

The reason ``=='' doesn't work is because ``=='' is identity, not 
equality check. It will only return true if the two operands are the 
same object, not two different objects having the same value.
