sounds like we need a jsp version of cf_bodycontent....
I've kind of hashed one up, but it doesn't work too well...
What it should do is everything between the tag is returned as a variable,
but not actually output to screen (or buffer?).
eg if the template is:
<!------------------------------------------->
<jsp_bodycontent return="myvar">
some text
</jsp_bodycontent>
some other text
<%= myvar %>
<!------------------------------------------->
Then what appears on the page is:
some other text
some text
Does that make sense?
The problem i found with the tag i wrote was that if i included a file
within the tag, then the contents of the included file were not captured my
mytag.generated content....
