The included page processes the same request object. So you are going to get the previous request properties. The only other option is to do a "sendRedirect" but that is not going to include the output of the original jsp.
This is a dirty solution ( assuming that you control the servlet code ): Override service method in ur servlet, set a pathinfo variable as a request param value if it is not null, else set it to request.getPathInfo. Then in ur doXXX methods, call this pathinfo variable or have a wrapper getPathInfo method that returns this variable. -- padhu Tony LaPaso wrote:
Hello all, May I ask a question? I have a servlet named "FormDispatcher" which I include from a JSP like this: <jsp:include page="servlet/FormDispatcher/abc/def"/> What I *want* is for the FormDispatcher servlet to be able to access the "/abc/def" path info by calling "request.getPathInfo()". When the servlet calls "request.getPathInfo()", however, the method returns the path info for the JSP which contains the <jsp:include> element shown above, not "/abc/def". I understand why this is and it makes perfect sense to me. *BUT*, I'm hoping there is a way, somehow, for me to gain access to the "/abc/def" path info. As a workaround I'm passing "/abc/def" as a request param as shown below but I'd rather the included servlet be able to access the path info that was specified in the <jsp:include> tag. Is it possible? Thanks very much. The workaround.... <jsp:include page'"/servlet/FormDispatcher"> <jsp:param name="caller-param" value="/abs/def"/> </jsp:include> =========================================================================== To unsubscribe: mailto [EMAIL PROTECTED] with body: "signoff JSP-INTEREST".
