I'd like to do the following:

Now, obviously this is not going to work until JSP 2.0.

So then there's the next step of:

<jsp:forward page="somePage.jsp">
  <jsp:param name="id" value="<c:out value="${param.id}"/>"/>
</jsp:forward>

Which due to the order of parsing also fails to work. [This has come up
enough on this list].
Right, JSP action elements are not evaluated in the attribute value
of another JSP action element.

Now, my question is, is there anyway around this?
Apart from the obvious: <% request.getParameter("id") %>.
Develop your own forward and param custom actions and add support for
the EL. Or if you want to use existing code, that's exactly what I did
for my book. You can download the code and use it anyway you like from
here:
