Mixing content generation with logic is not good practise. I think good solution
in your case is split generation and logic. Logic can be included to your own
xsp-action [1]. IMHO this is suitable solution of your problem.
BTW, if value 'HTML_stylesheet' is needed in only one place, you can use
<action:set-result> instead of using session attr.
Hope this help.
