Hi, I'll preface this by saying I'm not a JSP expert and don't use them frequently, so I could be wrong. That said, the JSP Specification v2.0 (which tomcat 5.x implements: tomcat 4.1.x implements the JSP Specification v1.2), section JSP.5.4 (page 1-110), explains the differences between the two styles and suggests that "style 1" is not valid (unless of course you have params inside the include element).
