I'm having some trouble getting the c:import tag to work right.
It seems to be perfectly fine when the request that tomcat receives is
a GET request. However, when it receives a HEAD request instead, c:import
never actually reads the data.
Is this a known bug? Is it fixed in a more recent version of tomcat?
I'm using 5.0.30.

Here's an example jsp file testit.jsp:
---cut---
<%@ taglib uri="http://java.sun.com/jsp/jstl/core"; prefix="c" %>
<c:import url="/testit.txt" var="foo"/>
<%
System.out.println("FOO:[" + pageContext.getAttribute("foo") + "]");
%>
worked: ${foo}
---cut---
Here's testit.txt:
---cut---
data data data
---cut---
When I send a GET request to retrieve /myapp/testit.jsp, I get the expected
"worked: data data data" in the response, and in catalina.out I get:
---cut---
FOO:[data data data
]
---cut---
That's what I expect. However, if I send a HEAD request I get no output
other than headers in the response (as I expect), but catalina.out has
this instead:
---cut---
FOO:[]
---cut---
Notice there's nothing inside the [].
Here's my HEAD request transcript:
poe: {50} telnet localhost 8080
