You can't, unless you have a filter parsing the outbound generated page, or use JavaScript on the client (neither of which I'd recommend). > request.getparameter is giving me null here.

That was my point :-) though '/books' is nicer than 'books.jsp' IMO, but ... > That would be be my first level, and then do similar thing for second > level with check that at each level that session id remains the same in all > cases. I don't understand that at all -- if you're using the session to keep track of the breadcrumb path, it's "the same" by definition. > Does my thoughts makes sense or do we have some better solutions with pure > jsp/servlets/jstl with TC without using any plugin? Again, what magic do you think is going to map some arbitrary text to a URL used by your application? If you create a simple mapping table, you can use JSTL to populate your pages (and breadcrumb trail) appropriately. For that matter if you use the 'books.jsp' => Books approach, you can probably use JSTL to do that transform. Or create a custom tag to handle it (possibly better).
