Subject: Re: jspInit() and request.getParameter()
JSP are just servlets. In a servlet Init is called once (when the container
loads the servlet), ditto for jspInit. In [jsp]Init you are not servicing
the request, so the request object isn't available. The 'request' object is
actually a parameter that is passed to the _jspService method. So, yes it is
working as designed,
