The <jsp:param> action was added in JSP 1.1 so it doesn't work in a JSP 1.0
container. In a JSP 1.1 container it will set the values as regular request
parameters, so at the target you should use getParameter()/getParameterValues()
to retrieve it. If it doesn't work that way in a JSP 1.1 container it's a bug.
