Dear Group,
I'm afraid I'm not fully into this but, in our project we've done something
similar. We used :
<jsp:include page="top.jsp" flush="true" >
Here, we were able to take up the changed file. However, as far as dynamism
was concerned, the file was fixed i.e., top.jsp and not any other file. Now,
do u have anyway to choose a file at runtime?
TIA,
Arnab
