problem:
I have a jsp file:  getnews.jsp and an html file which links to it.

the links look like:

<a
href="getnews.jsp?article=a/lexis_nexis.imb.ft/19991126/383eaa98.4db5.1038/i
ndex.html">link text</a>

getnews.jsp is an html template with a server-side include to pull the
specified article in:  I have tried two kinds of includes, with the same
result


<jsp:include page="<%= request.getParameter("article") %>" />
or
<%@ include file="<%=request.getParameter("article")%>" %>


error message:

com.sun.jsp.compiler.ParseException:
/usr/netscape/server4/devdocs/news/getnews.jsp(80,56) "Attribute article has
no value"

------------

troubleshooting:

I can write the value of "article" in a standard link like this:

<a href="/news/<%=request.getParameter("article") %>">link text</a>

with no error, and the link works perfectly.


I have also tried the following code in getnews.jsp

<% String myArticle = request.getParameter("article"); %>
<jsp:include page="myArticle" />

with the following error:

java.io.IOException: "Error: Attempt to clear a buffer that's already been
flushed"


platform:  .jsp is being handled by WebSphere on a Sun box.

any help would be appreciated!
