well, according to the JSP documentation, only the *value* attribute can
receive expression values (meaning <%= expressions).
But even that doesn't work properly - the following, for example, won't
work:
<jsp:include page="a.jsp" flush="true">
<jsp:param name="a" value="<%= request.getParameter ("a") %>" />
</jsp:include>
HOWEVER this DOES work:
<%
String variable = request.getParameter("a");
%>
<jsp:include page="a.jsp" flush="true">
<jsp:param name="a" value="<%= variable %>" />
</jsp:include>
If there are any Tomcat developers listening - please check this out, its a
possible bug..
Regards...
Arik.

It never creates the java source code, or rather, it creates the .java file
but
it's empty as the file isn't correctly parsed, when I remove the include
tags
as you suggested, the page compiles fine... What can we accertain from that?
