Hello,

I've noticed JSP isn't this list's favorite topic so I'll be brief:

I've successfully installed & configured Turbine under Resin 1.2, to
the point where I can build and run custom actions and screens using
ECS. I've browsed the javadoc and list archives, but I can't quite
figure out the specific steps I need to take in order build a working
application that works as follows:

- A request comes in; Turbine handles authentication, session
  management and business logic.

- Turbine actions/screens put various pieces of data in objects that a
  JSP can access via <jsp:useBean> or however.

- Turbine's navigation & layout features go largely unused.

- The flow of control is passed to a JSP, which munges data from the
  action/screen together with HTML/XML. When a JSP needs to do things
  that access application data (e.g. build links), it directly
  accesses relevant Turbine singletons. 

If somebody could provide a quick blow-by-blow on what I need to do
(what properties to set, what the screens to subclass & what methods
they should implement, how to specify and pass control to the jsp
template, etc) I would be very indebted. Also, I'd be happy to write
documentation once I better understand how the various parts of such a
framework fit together.

Unfortunately, Webmacro/Velocity isn't an option for this project, for
purely bureaucratic reasons. Thanks in advance and my apologies for
bringing up such an abominable topic ;-). I've been very impressed
with Turbine thus far, and can't wait to get it integrated into our
existing system.

Cheers,
David
