Except for the fact that section 5.4 of the (2.1) JSP spec precludes having anything except <jsp:param /> in the body of a <jsp:include> element. Allowing template text in there is then a Container-specific feature and so renders the webapp non-portable. It would be a bug if the error happened for a page in XML syntax however. > - -chris > -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- > Version: GnuPG v1.4.10 (MingW32) > Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org/ > > iEYEARECAAYFAkrlyrsACgkQ9CaO5/Lv0PDDGACglcZR5X+kwfi1y2w82Sb5nuW5 > hioAn1I2ZY0r3CZSanzU9TpMyHEXWfTr > =XZ+i > -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@tomcat.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@tomcat.apache.org
