Hi David,
Temporary storage (and passing of vars down the chain) is precisely what I
use the attribs for. Here's a bit of code for sending an id to another
object via the Request object:
req.setAttribute("jbxsp-id",instanceId);
instance.setReq(req);

Subject: Request attributes?
A bit confused.
Looking at org.apache.cocoon.environment.Request (basically it's just a
ServletRequest object). I see that a Request has both parameters and
attributes.
I know what request parameters are. These are the form values in your HTML
form that get submitted to the servlet.
But what are request attributes? I don't know how it works elsewhere, but
at least with Cocoon these seem to always be empty.
1) What are they for?
2) Am I allowed to use these for my own personal use; i.e., as sort of a
temporary storage area? (e.g., request.setAttribute(String name, Object o)
)
TIA!
DR
