As a workaround, I wrote an 'eval' tag that captures its content to a
bean. You can bind the content to a scripting variable and use the
variable. It's ugly but it works.
So, you'd do this:
<x:eval id='idValue'><bean:write name="somebean" property="id" /></x:eval>
<html:link href="somepage.jsp?action=someaction&id=<%= idValue %>" >link
text</html:link>
The actual implementation of eval is very simple - just a body tag that
captures its content to a String and puts the String into the page context.
