Hi Y'all
but adding parameters must work somehow, as it works for jsp!
See what jsp spec 1.2 says for <jsp:include> (it's also true for 1.1)
####cite####
4.2.5 <jsp:forward>
A <jsp:forward page=�urlSpec� /> element allows the runtime dispatch of the
current request to a static resource, a JSP pages or a Java Servlet class in
the same context as
the current page. A jsp:forward effectively terminates the execution of the
current page. The
relative urlSpec is as in Section 2.2.1.
The request object will be adjusted according to the value of the page
attribute.
A jsp:forward action may have jsp:param subelements that can provide values for
some parameters in the request to be used for the forwarding.
...
####cite####
Because jsp is based on servlet passing additional parameters must work for
servlet too!
Can't say how exactly, but try <jsp:forward> within a jsp page and look at the
intermediate
servlet java code generated by the servlet engine.
