 -- more specifically, you can use the request.getAttribute() and
request.setAttribute() methods to put and retrieve objects into the request
scope.  For example, on a self posting form, you might have a servlet handle
validation and then send a vector of errors to the jsp to display.  In the
servlet, you'd do something like this:

request.setAttribute("errors", v);

where 'v' is a Vector object. Then in your JSP, you could use syntax like
this:

<jsp:useBean id="errors" scope="request" class="java.util.Vector" />

to retrieve the Vector from the request scope.
