Tim, Thanks. I went to the JSP 2.0 spec and they recommend using ".jspf". Here's what they say ( for any that might beinterested ):
--- SNIP BEGIN --- ( What Is a JSP Page 1-7 JavaServer Pages 2.0 Specification) By default the extension .jsp means a top-level JSP file. We recommend, but do not mandate, to differentiate between top-level JSP files (invoked directly by the client or dynamically included by another page or servlet) and statically included segments so that: . The .jsp extension is used only for files corresponding to top level JSP files, forming a JSP page when processed. . Statically included segments use any other extension. As included segments were called 'JSP fragments' in past versions of this specification, the extension .jspf was offered as a suggestion. This extension is still suggested for consistency reasons, despite that they are now called 'jsp segments'. --- SNIP END --- Thanks again for pointing me in the right direction. - Richard -----Original Message----- From: Tim Funk [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, February 25, 2004 5:22 AM To: Tomcat Users List Subject: Re: Tomcat 5 deployer compile errors on "<%@ include"s The best thing to do is to not make compile time includes end in '.jsp'. Some use .inc, other .jspi, and the spec might even have arecommendation for compile time includes. Also by using a specific file extension you can quickly identify its purpose. -Tim Richard Mixon (qwest) wrote: > I am trying to use the client deployer.
