In fact (just to expand on this), out of the tags Jayson listed, <sql:update> is the only one that typically will have a permanent effect on "model" data. The <c:import> tag supports only HTTP GET, not HTTP POST; by the HTTP standard, HTTP GET is meant not to have side effects. Similarly, the XML tags do not generally manipulate data; they usually retrieve (and typically display) it. We didn't include tags for DOM modification, for instance. -- Shawn Bayern "JSTL in Action" http://www.jstlbook.com (coming in July 2002 from Manning Publications) -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> For additional commands, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
