import tag for dynamic content

[paulbrickell]

Does anyone know how to use the import tag to access dynamic content from the
current context?

I naively thought this would do it...




or





Where /x/y/z is a (context)relative path that my application maps to a
servlet. However this doesn't seem to work because the import tag doesn't
expand the url and make a request. It does, to be honest, what it's name
suggests it should and just tries to import the content statically from the
given path.

Actually I am trying to import xml for parsing here, but it seems that the
xml parse tag only works upon a document in some scope and not against a
URL. So I appear to be a bit stuck. 

I found this...




and it works. But I cannot believe this is the right way to it.

TIA,
Paul B.
