Here is what I'm trying to do:
Dynamically include a file where the file name is dynamic.  Neither of

   %@ include file=directory/%=fileName% %

The %=fileName% is not getting evaluated like one would think it  
should,

it is just being rendered as a literal.

Any way around this?

Thanks

Thanks Yuval, but the jsp file that fileName is pointing to is not being
evaluated. And there aren't any errors printing out to the page.  How do I
look into what is happening here?

Actually, I just checked some of our code and this:
jsp:include page=%=(String)request.getAttribute(main)%/ 
jsp:include

works...

I think the problem is that you are do mix a string and a runtime  
expression in a tag. These are not html tags - the variables are  
passed to a function - it's all or nothing.



Try:

% String path = directory/+fileName; %
jsp:include page=%=path% flush=true/

Will JSTL work with Tomcat 5.5?  And if so is it a lot of work to set up or
do I just drop a jar file in the classpath?

Yes, no, and yes respectively :-)

Just drop jstl.jar and standard.jar in your webapp's lib directory and
put the appropriate tag includes at the top of the relevant files.

Yuval was right, all I had to do was make the whole argument in jsp:include
 a variable and it works!
