If you are using Java as your scripting language, there is almost no difference
(other than the syntax) between <jsp:include> and using a
RequestDispatcher.include() call. The former, however, will still be valid even
if you are using another scripting language in a JSP implementation that supports
this.

In what way does it "not work"? What are you trying to do with it?
Although, I must confess, I can't think of any reason I would ever want to, since
I can reference the variables and methods of the implementation class directly --
and passing a reference to my implementation object to someone else is not a good
idea from a security perspective.
