You're not telling us the whole story yet, so that's why you don't get the
right answer. How do you call the servlet from the JSP? Which JSP implementation
do you use? That's the important information.
If you're using a JSP 1.0 implementation and <jsp:include>, the request
attribute "javax.servlet.include.request_uri" contains what your looking for
(see JSP 1.0 Appendix B).
But I believe the current reference implementation doesn't yet support
dynamic content (such as a servlet) through <jsp:include>. Instead it
implements the "public draft 1" specification, where
<jsp:request include=file> performs the same function.
The "javax.servlet.include.request_uri" is also set if you use a scriptlet
to get a RequestDispatcher for the servlet and then using the RD.include
method to call it.
Did I get it right this time?
