Hi, if your JSP page isnt thread-safe then use:
<%@ page isThreadSafe="false %>, but we strongly recommend against that.
The better solution is to make your JSP thread-safe instead (non thread-safe
will scale horribly bad) -
are you using any instance vars? (if so, why?)
Try not to use instance vars in JSP pages and servlets, a better solution is
an object created at the start of the method holding all the vars (usually,
that is).
Hope it helps, if there's any more q's feel free to ask. :)
