[Webware-devel] Updated code in CVS.

[Stuart Donaldson]

I applied the includeURL patches with a few modifications. Thanks to Luke for your help and for testing this.

In the process, I discovered a couple of anomolies that I wanted to bring up.

The forward() method runs through dispatchRequest(). If the URL is a directory that does not end in a '/' this results in a redirect. This means that no data can be passed through the request or transaction objects. It seems like we could just make forward() pretty much identical to include() but to handle clearing the strmout, and fixing up any session information like forward tries to do right now. Does this make sense?

Note that referencing a directory without the trailing '/' is discouraged. Currently the serverSideInfoForRequestNewAlgorithm and OldAlgorithm deal with this a little differently.
The URL's are now relative to the current servlet, and absolute references are based on the current context. I am concerned about this breaking existing installations. In particular, the PSPDocs.psp page is broken, because it tries to include "../Docs/UserGuide.html" which is out of context. That isn't even in any context. Are there other psp pages which may have been doing this sort of thing? Any suggestions on how to fix this?

That's all for now...
