Thank you all for your responses. It's been a great help and very
interesting reading.
We have a shared jsp page; there are three paths to it. Navigation has to
return to
the jsp that took the user to this particular page.
So we set a 'context' variable in session and wanted to use this for
navigation;
it would have one of three values and would invoke the jsp where the user
began.
James gave me a syntax that pulled the variable from sessionScope, but in
fact
that did not work in an action button; it does work with other tags, but
the button
tag wanted a method when I used a binding tag. I haven't tried a jstl
expression.
In any case, we have a method that returns the session scope variable and
are
using that with the action button of the shared jsp, and this controls
navigation ok.
If anyone has resolved this problem in another way, I'd love to read about.
Thanks again to everyone.

You can always write an action method, and return different outcomes,
if you want to reuse the view.
