Jayson,
That was a very good example. My doubt is not in passing parameter from a
form to a JSP. I am trying to pass parameters between JSPs using the
setAttribute() and getAttribute(). I am able to pass atttibutes between two
JSPs using session. putValue() and session.getValue(). However, I am not
able to use request.setAttribute() and request.getAttribute() to pass
attributes values between two JSPs.
Does this mean that a new request object is created with a new call to a
jsp?
