Hi Andreas, the problem is that you put an attribute in the request and then you get it from the context... you should, instead, get it from the request, so:
request.setAttribute(Constants.VARIABLE_KEY, "variable"); ... variable = (String)pageContext.getRequest().getAttribute(Constants.VARIABLE_KEY); Regards Alessio [EMAIL PROTECTED] -----Messaggio originale----- Da: Andreas Hirner [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Inviato: marted́ 2 luglio 2002 16.24 A: Tomcat Users List Oggetto: taglibs and application context Hello, I have set an attribute like this: request.setAttribute(Constants.VARIABLE_KEY, "variable"); now I would like retreive that variable in a taglib. But if call it via variable = (String)pageContext.getServletContext().getAttribute(Constants.VARIABL E_KEY); the variable is null Waht's wrong?
