1.  You can use a servlet as the source in a frameset.

2.  With respect to the include, create a base servlet with the following
methods.  Then extend all your servlets from the base class.  I know that
both of these work with Tomcat running the 1.3 jdk.

public void includePage( HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse
response, String page )
{
        try
        {
          response.setContentType("text/html");
          RequestDispatcher dispatcher =
getServletContext().getRequestDispatcher(page);
          dispatcher.include(request, response);
        }
        catch (Exception e)
        {
          System.out.println("Exception caught in includePage() (for Page =
" + page + ")");
        }
}

public void forwardPage( HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse
response, String page )
{
        try
        {
            response.getWriter().flush();
            //response.flushBuffer();
            response.setContentType("text/html");
            RequestDispatcher dispatcher =
getServletContext().getRequestDispatcher(page);

            dispatcher.forward(request, response);
        }
        catch (Exception e)
        {
             System.out.println(e.getMessage());
             System.out.println("Exception caught in forwardPage() (for Page = " +
page + ")");
        }
}

Subject: Two questions...


Hello All.

First, can a servlet be used as the source in a frameset (particularly if
the html code containing the frameset is itself created by a servlet)?

Second, I have not been able to get any of these methods to work:


ServletContext.getRequestDispatcher(java.lang.String).include(ServletRequest
request, ServletResponse response)
  ServletContext.getNamedDispatcher(java.lang.String).include(ServletRequest
request, ServletResponse response)

ServletRequest.getRequestDispatcher(java.lang.String).include(ServletRequest
request, ServletResponse response)

Does anyone have example code using the include() method of the
RequestDispatcher interface?  I have been unsuccessful so far.

I am using Tomcat, Servlet Developer's Kit 2.2, and Java Developer's Kit
1.3.

Thanks in advance.
