I hate to reply to my own post, but I have some more information that might help in solving the problem.
After doing the jsp:include with the jsp:param of jeffstest = 15, I then get this output inside the portal: querystring: jeffstest=26 param.jeffstest: null request.paramNames: action, _spage Outside of the portal, by hitting the jsp directly, I get: querystring: jeffstest=26 param.jeffstest: 26 request.paramNames: jeffstest So now the question is, why on a jsp:include does the param get placed into the querystring but not added to the request.getParameters? It's as if the parameters cannot be updated once the page is already being rendered in the portal? If this is true, than are jsp:param and c:param tags not functional in a portlet when doing jsp:include or c:import? -- Jeff Sheets On Tue, 21 Dec 2004 22:43:09 -0600, Jeff Sheets <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > I'm trying to do something like this in a portlet: > <jsp:include page="include/mypage.jsp"> > <jsp:param name="jeffstest" value="15"/> > </jsp:include> > > And then in mypage.jsp: > jeffstest = <c:out value="${param.jeffstest}"/> > > This works fine if I hit the jsp directly, but doesn't work inside the > portal.
