The above is the correct syntax for JSP 1.1, but <jsp:param> wasn't supported
in JSP 1.0, and that could be why you get the error.
The original message is about JWS 2.0. Same problem there; it support JSP 1.0,
not 1.1.

This is definitely incorrect syntax. When you use /> to end a tag it means
it doesn't have a body. Hence, the </jsp:forward> closing tag is redundant
and probably cause the syntax error.

Do you mean you try the <jsp:param> without an enclosing <jsp:forward>?
That should be reported as an error, since this tag is pointless outside
the scope of a <jsp:forward> or <jsp:include> tag (again, in JSP 1.1 only).
So what can you do? You can upgrade to a JSP 1.1 server, see
<http://java.sun.com/products/jsp/industry.html#tools>. Some servers I know
of that support JSP 1.1 are Tomcat (<http://jakarta.apache.org/>, our own
LiteWebServer, Orion Application Server.
Or if you're stuck with JSP 1.0 for some reason, try this instead:
<jsp:forward page="bb.jsp?userid=ggggg9999" />

PS.I see a lot of questions on this list about things not working as expected,
when it turns out that it's because people try to use features that are not
included in the version of the API their product supports. You will save
yourself a lot of time and pain if you first find out what version of the API
your product supports (and what optional features it supports), and then read
the corresponding version of the API specification. Reading the documentation
for your product and the specification is usually a much faster way to solve
these types of problems than asking on the mailing list.
