> so what did your index.jsp look like?
Here's a little chunk:
<!-- dpi.cfm for DentalPlanInfo.com -->
<%@ page language= "java"%>
<%@ page import="java.util.*"%>
<%! String fa; %>
<%! String pagename; %>
<%
fa = request.getParameter("fa");
if (fa == null)
fa = "plan";
if (fa.equals("plan"))
{
%>
<jsp:include page="dsp_plan.jsp" flush="true"/>
<%
}
else if (fa.equals("mailmemberinfo"))
{
%>
<jsp:include page="act_sendmembermail.jsp" flush="true"/>
<jsp:include page="dsp_memberthanks.jsp" flush="true"/>
<%
}
else
{
%>
Define this fuseaction: [<%= fa %>]<br>
<%
}
%>
<jsp:include page="dpilogonav.jsp" flush="true"/>
Notice that I used if/else instead of switch/case. That's because in java
(as in C and other languages) switch/case only takes integers as values. So
I could have made all my fuseactions numeric and just remembered that 4 was
"mailmemberinfo" but I don't like to have to remember that much stuff. :)
Another way to handle that would be to create a 2-element array holding the
fuseaction words and matching numbers at the top of the file, and then
lookup the number you need to use in the switch/case block. An if/else block
creates more of a hit than switch/case, but adding a lookup would increase
the code necessary to get the job done, too, so I just decided to go the
route shown above.
Also, this was the first jsp app that I wrote, so anything you see could
probably be written better. =:)
