There is no init method, i'm just suggesting:
<xsp:page>
<xsp:logic>
int initialized = 0;
</xsp:logic>
<page>
<xsp:logic>
if ( initialized == 0 )
{
// do init stuff here
initialized = 1; // this block will never be reached again.
}
</xsp:logic>
</page>
</xsp:page>
Hope this helps. Perhaps someone else has another idea?
