Yan,
Thanks, I've looked up your suggestion and found the following:
It appears that processRequest() method takes a HttpServletRequest object
as it's parameter. The implicit request bean is of type ServletRequest.
It looks like there's a type mismatch. Also, looking at the JSDK2.1 API,
both HttpServletRequest and ServletRequest are interfaces that don't
inherit from anything. Am I missing something here? Would you have any
other ideas by any chance? Thanks.
- Jim
PS. What purpose does the implicit request bean serve if all that can be
done with it is <DISPLAY>?
