You will see this sort of behavior in any servlet-based application that uses RequestDispatcher.incude() -- as Tiles does -- to assemble the various subcomponents of the page together. The servlet API requires that the request URI (as well as the other path components like the servlet path) be adjusted in such scenarios to point at the included resource. The request URI of the original request is still available to the included resource, however -- it's stored by the container in a request attribute under the key "javax.servlet.include.request_uri", along with the other path components under similarly named keys. See Section 8.3.1 of the Servlet Spec for details. > Thanks, > James Norman > Craig --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
