Include jsp in doEdit method

I want to include an JSP page in the doEdit() method, I use the following code.
IResource jspResource =request.getResource("jsp", EDIT_JSP);
Response.include(request, jspResource);
It didn't work. The EDIT_JSP file is not included into the personalization page. And the personalization page shows a message: "This iView has no property to customize" and a cancel button. I am sure it is NOT the problem of file location, because if the file has syntax error, it will report the error. What else should I do? I want to only show my jsp in the personalization page. It is very strange that if I copy the java equivalent code to doEdit(), it works fine. Also this method works fine in doContent . I guess it must be that SAP does differently for including in doContent with doEdit.
Thanks,
Xiaochen

You need to modify your portalapp.xml. Add the following lines in your portalapp.xml.
<b>com.ust.xxx.xxx</b> is name of your personalization class(along with package name).
<component-profile>
<property name="PersonalizationClass" value="com.ust.xxx.xxx"/>
</component-profile>

Custom tag in included JSP page cause exception (WLS 5.1 SP 9)

          An application use custom tags (JSP Tag extensions) in JSP page
          included into another JSP page by means <jsp:include> instruction.
          After we had installed Service Pack 9 for Weblogic 5.1
          browser's call of including JSP began show an error.
          When I remove Weblogic510sp9.jar and Weblogic510sp9boot.jar
          references from startWebLogic.cmd, the error diagnostic disappear.
          Is Service Pack Number 9 wrong?

ADF Question: included jsp action firing after page load

Hi all,
I am using JDeveloper 10.1.3.3 and ADF + BC.
Here is another interesting situation for you. I have a page with an included jsp at the top with tabbed navigation.
My page is for entering an order. Users can have multiple orders "open" in other tabs at the same time. Users can also have many other non-order pages opened in tabs. We are using the same View Objects (Entity Based) along with Transient View Objects on each order.
Each order tab needs to "remember" the orderId so that when the user clicks on a tab, the appropriate rows are set in the order that is to be "opened". This occurs in a tab's action() - setting the orderId and forwarding to the appropriate page (if different) or reloading the same page with the new id.
On page load we try to get the tab's orderId and load that as the current row of all of our view objects. This should make it seem like they are all concurrently running.
The problem is when going from order to order, once the tab is clicked, the page's OnPageLoad method runs BEFORE the action of the tab click is processed. Therefore the order that loads thinks it is the previous order, and does not load the correct View Object rows.
Does anyone know how we can force the tab action to occur before the page load so that we can get the proper orderId?
Thanks,
Heather

Thanks for your speedy reply Frank,
We are using the onPageLoad from the OnPageLoadBackingBeanBase which implements the PagePhaseListener.
In this we are doing something like:
        if (isPostback()) {
            String selectedTabNum =
                EL.getAsString("#{TabCounter.currentSelectedTab}");
            String test = EL.getAsString("#{TabCounter.tabOrderId" + selectedTabNum + "}");
            System.out.println("tab num " + selectedTabNum);
            System.out.println( "testing " + test );
        }our tab counter (a session bean) has these two methods (among others):
    public void setCurrentSelectedTab(int currentSelectedTab) {
        this.currentSelectedTab = currentSelectedTab;
        for(int i=1;i<= 20; i++) {
            EL.set(BACKING_START+"selectedTab"+i+"}", false);
        EL.set(BACKING_START+"selectedTab"+currentSelectedTab+"}", true);
    public String getNextAvailableTab () {
        for(int i=2;i<=20;i++) {
            boolean isTab = (new Boolean (String.valueOf(EL.get(BACKING_START+"render"+i+"}")))).booleanValue();
            if (!isTab) {
                return String.valueOf(i);
        return "0";
    }our tab header (request bean) has this method as the action for clicking a tab:
        System.out.println("handleTabNavigation");
        String componentId = actionEvent.getComponent().getId();
        String selectedTab = componentId.replaceFirst("tab","");
        int selectedTabNum = new Integer(selectedTab).intValue();
        EL.set("#{TabCounter.currentSelectedTab}", selectedTabNum);
        String tabType = EL.getAsString("#{TabCounter.tabType"+selectedTabNum+"}");
        if (tabType.equals("regular")) {
            String orderId = EL.getAsString("#{TabCounter.tabOrderId"+selectedTabNum+"}");
            EL.set("#{processScope.unfinishedHeaderId}", orderId);
        } else if (tabType.equals("standing")) {
            String orderId = EL.getAsString("#{TabCounter.tabOrderId"+selectedTabNum+"}");
        }Thanks,
Heather

Include jsp versus seperate class/bean versus taglib

Hi friends,
I am working on Servlet/JSP project. There are large no. of jsp pages. A common set of methods get repeated in all the jsp pages. Now my concen is to separate out the methods in a file and then use it in jsp page.
Kindly suggest me the right path to follow, taking into consideration that we take up the optimized solution and performance-wise also feasible.
Whether I should go for
1. Using 'include jsp'
2. using 'taglib'
3. creating a seperate utility class with the required methods and 'import' it in the JSP pages.
Kindly reply ASAP.
Thanks in advance.
Regards.

I would suggest you should go for user defined tags.
This would ensure that the business functionality is isolated from your web objects and it would be modular to maintain.
Using simple classes will add java code to your JSP pages, which makes them less readable.
Apart from that implicit object creation by the Servlet/JSP engine(which are instantiating and garbage collecting the taglib objects) will be more efficient.
Hope this helps
regards
Ravi

Problems with managed beans on included JSPs

I've got a problem with managed beans within an included JSP
The included page looks as follows:
<f:subview id="includedPage" binding="#{testBean.component}">
     <h:outputText value="Hallo from the included page"/>
     <h:outputText value="#{testBean.msg}" />
</f:subview>The including page is also very simple
<f:view>
     <html>
          <head>
               <title>Test include</title>
          </head>
          <body>
               <h:outputText value="Hello from the including page"/>
               <jsp:include page="included.jsp"/>
          </body>
     </html>
</f:view>The testBean is a managed bean with page scope and looks as follows:
public class TestBean {
    public UIComponent fComponent;
    public TestBean() {
        System.out.println("TestBean Constructor called " + toString() );
    public String getMsg() {
        return "Component = " + fComponent ;
    public void setComponent(UIComponent component) {
        System.out.println("setComponent called " + component);
        fComponent = component;
    public UIComponent getComponent() {
        System.out.println("getComponent called " + fComponent);
        return fComponent;
}The output to the console is:
TestBean Constructor called de.kvb.athena.web.beans.TestBean@1bc16f0
getComponent called null
TestBean Constructor called de.kvb.athena.web.beans.TestBean@18622f3
setComponent called javax.faces.component.UINamingContainer@160877b
TestBean Constructor called de.kvb.athena.web.beans.TestBean@5eb489
and the page displays
Hello from the include page
Hello from the included page Component = null
Can anyone explain this behavior ? What's the reason that the page displays
Component = null
and is it possible to display the parent naming container (subview) this way ?
how ?
Thanks

By "page scope" I assume you mean "none"? If so JSF creates a new bean for each place it's referenced. The closest to the behavior you want, once per "page", is really request scope.
(I'm not sure why the constructor is being called thrice, though. I should look into this.)
I assume you want a bean-per-subview scenario. This should be doable, and one way that allows a dynamic number of subviews would be as follows:
--create a "manager" bean in request scope
--give it get/set methods that retrieves a Map of "TestBean" instances; the idea is that each subview use a different key "s1", "s2", etc
back the manager method with Map implementation that checks if there's already a TestBean associated with the key returns it if yes, else null.
If that seems messy, the component solution is hairy :-) See http://forum.java.sun.com/thread.jspa?threadID=568937&messageID=2812561

Repeater fails using {container.item} context within included JSP pages

Greetings,
I'm using Bea Workshop 8.1.2 and netui's based framework.
I'm experiencing a problem relating to the use of jsp:insert tags as a way of templating the code as to make it more maintainable and cost effective.
The problem arises when using repeaters and then binding a <netui> tag with a "container.item" context inside the included jsp page.
Example:
On a PageController we define on its scope a rather simple data structure:
public String[] array={"Item1","Item2","Item3"}
The associated index is as follows:
index.jsp
<netui:html>
<netui-data:repeater dataSource="{pageFlow.array}">
<netui-data:repeaterHeader></netui-data:repeaterHeader>
<netui-data:repeaterItem>
<netui:label value="{container.item}"/><br>
</netui-data:repeaterItem>
<netui-data:repeaterFooter></netui-data:repeaterFooter>
</netui-data:repeater>
</netui:html>
This works as expected, it prints the data in the array list. Fine.
Now, with the <jsp:insert> tag usage, we get two files index.jsp and body.jsp:
index.html
<netui:html>
<netui-data:repeater dataSource="{pageFlow.array}">
<netui-data:repeaterHeader></netui-data:repeaterHeader>
<netui-data:repeaterItem>
<jsp:include page="body.jsp" flush="true"/>
</netui-data:repeaterItem>
<netui-data:repeaterFooter></netui-data:repeaterFooter>
</netui-data:repeater>
</netui:html>
body.jsp
<netui:html>
<netui:label value="{container.item}"/>
<netui:label value="{pageFlow.array[0]}"/>
</netui:html>
With this example the {container.item} tag fails with this exception:
"Caught exception when evaluating expression "{container.item}" with available binding contexts [actionForm, pageFlow, globalApp, request, session, appication, pageContext, bundle, container, url, pageInput]. Root cause: com.bea.wlw.netui.script.xscript.IllegalContextStateException: The Tag "com.bea.wlw.netui.tags.html.Label@cb5dce" does not have a valid parent of type DataAccessProvider. The expression "container["item"]" requires a parent of this type."
BUT - and here is my problem with this - the label tag with {pageFlow.array[0]} PRINTS THE DESIRED ELEMENT.
Also, on an extended example with a <form> tag around the main index html and the array structure inside a FormData class, {actionForm.array[0]} ALSO PRINTS THE DESIRED ELEMENT.
Only {container.item} gloriously fails with an exception complaining about IllegalContextStateException.
This is a total nonorthogonal behaviour, the features do not work as expected and indeed, with the importance of repeaters for netui's development, this preclude us from the minimum standard for structured web application design.
Does anyone have any clue about this behaviour? If not a fix, at least an explanation...
Thanks in advance.

I am trying to insert multiple rows I when submited I am get ting only 1 row in the DatabaseForm.
my netui.log file shows this error:

Dynamically include jsp:param

Is it possible to include <jsp:param> inside <jsp:forward> dynamically? There are two ways:
1)
<jsp:forward ...>
<% if (...) { %>
<jsp:param ... />
<% } %>
</jsp:forward>
2)
<jsp:forward ...>
<util:if predicate="...">
<jsp:param ... />
</util:if>
</jsp:forward>
assuming <util:if> is some kind of conditional evaluation tag.
The JSP 1.2 pfd2 says:
The jsp:param element is used to provide key/value information. This element is
used in the jsp:include , jsp:forward and jsp:params elements. A translation
error shall occur if the element is used elsewhere.
This seems to indicate that 2) is not allowed, but it is not clear whether or not 1) is allowed.
I think it is desirable to allow both methods of dynamically including jsp:param elements.
Any comments?

1. doesn't work. You're not allowed to have <% %> scriplets inside of a jsp:forward tag. You can however include <%= %> tags. So you could set the value of a parameter dynamically and include the in the jsp:param tag
2. I don't know about.

Listing files on the webcontent directory that including .jsp files

Hi ,
I want to list all files on the directory that including .jsp files . How can I do this ?
�f I use the following code in the jsp:
java.io.File file = new java.io.File(".");
String[] files= file.list();
it returns me application server 's directory files. But I want to see webcontent directory files.

You can use the method of ServletContext - getRealPath() to turn a website relative location into a real place on disk.
In a generic way:
<%
    String dir = application.getRealPath(request.getServletPath());
    File jspFile = new File(dir);
    File jspDir = jspFile.getParentFile();
    File[] files = jspDir.listFiles();
%>Cheers,

Include jsp tags

I am having a problem relacing the include file of let's call it a
header.jsp in a menu page named menu.jsp.
So in my header.jsp file let's say I do something simple like
<table>
<tr><td><jato:href name="first">First Option
</jato:href></td></tr></table>
and so on....
And in my main.jsp I have a simple include at the top of my page
like so
<html
<body>
<%include file=header.jsp%>
etc.
Now when JRun 3.0 makes the include replacement, it seems to have a
problem where it tells me
Servlet error 500
com.iplanet.jato.view href : taglib navigation not found
BUT when I take out the jato tags in the include file...I can get
JRun to make the replacement perfectly....
Does anyone else have this problem and if so how did you get around
it?

Sorry to bother you again, but I couldn't find anything that looked strange
is this file. Can you send us the original file at our personal email
addresses? I'd like to see exactly where the compilation error occurs and
it's not possible with the file inlined here.

Hi Suket,
I just retested something very similar to this in 1.0.
Essentially, i took an existing page which included a tiledView.
I moved the TiledView jsp block into an entirely separate jsp file.
I then replace the TiledView jsp block in the original jsp with aninclude
<%@ include file="TiledGetOrders.jsp"%>
It worked like a charm.
So I am not sure what is wrong in your case.
Could be a jrun bug?
I have tested in resin 1.2.1
To do proper analysis, we would need to see
1. The intermediary .java file that the jsp engine creates, andthen tries
to compile.

Can you send that to us?
Incidentally, although we do not think a problem there would causethe
compile time error you are seeing,
i am curious about your file value.
<%@ include file="/IPP/ipp/pgFooter.jsp"%>I did not need to use a qualified file name, although my includetarget file
was in the same directory as the
page that was including it. What is the file system relationshipbetween
your top level page "pgHelp" and the include

Are they in same or diff directories?

Craig & Eric--
(If you're not interested in the resolution to the problem Craigposted,
please skip ahead to the section in which I describe the
preferred
technique
for including headers and other common content in a JATO page.
This
discussion is very important because I introduce the concept of"view
compostion", in which JATO pages are composed of modular andreusable view
components. This is one of the most powerful new features of
JATO,
and a
capability that simply wasn't possible in NetDynamics.)
Posted Problem Resolution
Craig & Eric, from what I can tell, you are both trying to
include
a full
view bean in a parent page at translation time. This is notpossible, as
you can see from the compiler errors you get. There are
collisions
when
multiple top-level tags are included in the same JSP.
When I said earlier that you needed to use a translation-timeinclude
instead of a run-time include, I was assuming that you were
trying
to
include a fragment of HTML/JSP in the parent page. By
fragment, I
mean HTML
or JSP content that does not declare a view bean or form, but
rather
references views contained within the parent view bean. If youwant to
include a full page (JSP + ViewBean) in another page, then you'dneed to use
a run-time include. A run-time include temporarily pauses therendering of
the current page, and sends the full request to the included
page
as if it
were a separate client request. The resulting content from theincluded
page is inlined into the parent page's content, and processing
of
the parent
page then continues.
Now I realize after thinking about it a bit that we may not have
sufficiently provided for full page includes because of some
late-
breaking
changes in the request context handling. After some basic
testing,
it
appears that if you try to include one JATO page in another byreferencing
the JSP, the included page will cause a class cast exception tooccur.
There may also be problems because the request context on theincluded page
will not have been set. In any case, full JATO page inclusionlooks like
it's an issue we're going to have to address with some fixes
before
it will
work properly. My apologies. (One workaround if this is
necessary
is to
make the included view bean a child view of the parent view
bean.
I won't
go into that however).
How to Include Common Content
Now, on to the discussion of the preferred way of including
common
content
in a JATO page. Let's say you have a common header you want toinclude in
one or more of your JATO pages. Because of the issue I notedabove, and the
fact that the header is not really independently displayable,
you
don't want
to do a run-time include (which, remember, would necessitateincluding a
full JATO page).
Instead, you should include the header as an HTML/JSP fragmentusing a
translation-time include. Depending on whether your header hasdynamic
information, you can do one of two things. If the header is
just
static
content and/or set of links, you can just reference the HTMLfragment in the
parent HTML directly, and you won't need any kind of view or
view
bean to
back it, or any reference to anything in JATO.
If you need some dynamic info in the header, like the module URLfor a link,
you can reference the parent page's view bean for this
information
by simply
including references to the parent page's implicit JSP variables(viewBean,
currentVIew, and currentTiledView). For example:
Parent JSP:
<jsp:useBean id="viewBean" class="..."scope="request"></jsp:useBean>
<jato:useViewBean className="..." fireChildDisplayEvents="true">
<%@ include file="MyInclude.jsp" %>
</jato:useViewBean>
Included content (MyInclude.jsp):
... viewBean.getRequestContext().getModuleURL() ...
The final HTML with the included content would then look like
this:
<jsp:useBean id="viewBean" class="..."scope="request"></jsp:useBean>
<jato:useViewBean className="..." fireChildDisplayEvents="true">
... viewBean.getRequestContext().getModuleURL() ...
</jato:useViewBean>
MyInclude.jsp will be inlined in the parent JSP before it istranslated to a
servlet. Note that it does not include the full HTML tags
normally
found in
an HTML file--there are no <html>, <head>, or <body> tags
because
it is not
expected to be used outside of an include page. In effect,
this is
the
equivalent of a server-side include (SSI).
Now, if you need truly dynamic info in the header, like say youwant to
display the user's name and SSN, then you'd likely want to
embed a
child
view in the parent view bean which will encapsulate & provide
the
necessary
information. This is in contrast to actually making these
fields
direct
children of the the parent view bean, which would be a tedious
and
error
prone task on every page you wanted to include this information.Let me try
to contrast these two approaches with a diagram of parent-child
relationships:
Here's the bad way:
ParentViewBean (ViewBean)
|
+-- UserFirstName (StaticTextField)
|
+-- UserSSN (StaticTextField)
In this situation, you'd need to provide the logic to populatethese fields
in every view bean on which they appeared. This is tedious andessentially
eliminates the "common"-ness of the content (this is also whatNetDynamics
forced people to do).
Now, the better way:
ParentViewBean (ViewBean)
|
+-- MyHeaderView (MyHeaderView.java)
|
+-- UserFirstName (StaticTextField)
|
+-- UserSSN (StaticTextField)
In the better way, you can see that the header information isencapsulated
in an instance of "MyHeaderView", which is a subclass ofContainerViewBase
or one of the other ContainerView subtypes. The population of
the
data
fields is encapsulated in that view, and the parent view need
not
know
anything about what's actually being displayed by that view.
Thus, you can see that MyHeaderView, in conjunction with a
snippet
of JSP
content in a companion file, is completely modular and can beembedded in
any parent view bean on which you want the header to appear.
The
only
requirement is then to include MyHeaderView as a child view of
the
parent
view bean, and to include the correct JSP content that
references
that child
view.
The included JSP content would now look something like this:
<jato:view name="MyHeaderView">
<table>
<tr><td>... <jato:staticText name="UserFirstName"/>
...</td></tr>
<tr><td>... <jato:staticText name="UserSSN"/> ...</td></tr>
</table>
</jato:view>
If we now included this content in the parent JSP from furtherabove, we get
the following as the JSP content before it is translated into aservlet:
<jsp:useBean id="viewBean" class="..."scope="request"></jsp:useBean>
<jato:useViewBean className="..." fireChildDisplayEvents="true">
<jato:view name="MyHeaderView">
<table>
<tr><td>... <jato:staticText name="UserFirstName"/>
...</td></tr>
<tr><td>... <jato:staticText name="UserSSN"/> ...</td></tr>
</table>
</jato:view>
</jato:useViewBean>
Ultimately, this technique is called "view compostion" or "view
aggregation", and is one of the major new features of JATO. Youcan now
define reusable view components and embed them in multiple viewcontainers,
on the same page or on different pages. Each page acts as a
frame,
in which
you provide the contents from modular components. Using thistechnique, you
can develop reusable view classes and chunks of JSP that can bearbitrarily
combined into complex pages.
I know this is a long and rambling discussion, but I hope I've
made
myself
at least partly clear. I'm more than happy to clarify anything

How to access a variable from a dynamically included JSP page

I have a jsp (say main.jsp) using the following in its code :
<jsp:include page="menu.jsp" flush="true" />
I have a variable in menu.jsp which I would like to use in my main.jsp.
How do I get the value of the variable defined in menu.jsp ?
I called this variable in menu.jsp, Public, but this didnot help me use the value of that variable in main.jsp
Any help is highly appreciated.. thnks a lot

I do notice the variable var1 has the value populated - in menu.jsp - (from View -->
Source in the browser) but for some reason not able to use it in main.jspI'm not quite sure of the way your jsps are structured from your code snippet but I think there is something to be aware of here that may be part of your problem, namely the difference between the include directive and the include action.
You are currently using the include action, this treats the included resource as a dynamic object - i.e. a request is sent to that resource and the resulting response is included in your page. So when you think of what there is no java variable actually included - you'll just get the resulting HTML that is generated by menu.jsp
The include directive, as in <%@include file=�menu.jsp � %>, on the other hand treats the resource as a static object. This means the actual bytes in the included resource are inserted into the including jsp and then the result of that is compiled and processed, effectively you are cutting and pasting the menu.jsp into your calling jsp. In this case the variable would be available to the calling jsp.
However this approach does bring other difficulties that may break your current code, you'll just have to try it and see what happens.
Hope that's relevant to your problem,
Matt

Included JSP files not seeing JavaScript in main JSP file

Hi All,
I have a JSP page that defines a JavaScript block in it's HEAD block and then includes multiple JSP pages in it's BODY block. Calling a JavaScript function from any of the included JSP pages is met with the following JavaScript error:
JavaScript Error: [unknown origin]:
showBatchDetail is not defined.
I'm not sure what is wrong here since the JSP is generating on the server side and everything is fine by the time it gets to the client side. The entire client side file should be seeing the JavaScript block that was included in the main file.
Any help here would be much appreciated.
Steph.
Some barebones code appears below:
Main.jsp
<HTML>
<HEAD>
<TITLE>UNIT INFO</TITLE>
<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript">
function showBatchDetail(batchKey)
var url = "/pditools/html/SfmReports/ShowBatchDetail.jsp"
+ "?batchKey=" + batchKey;
document.location = url;
</SCRIPT>
</HEAD>
<BODY>
<%@include file="ShowBatchSummary.jsp"%>
<%@include file="ShowUnitDefects.jsp"%>
<%@include file="ShowUnitHistory.jsp"%>
</BODY>
</HTML>
ShowBatchSummary.jsp
<TABLE>
<TR>
<TD>
BATCH SUMMARY
<A TARGET="_blank" HREF="JavaScript:showBatchDetail(1000);">(Batch Detail)</A>
</TD>
</TR>
<TR>
Show some data ...
</TR>
</TABLE>

The problem is not about include but about link use
----ShowBatchSummary.jsp----
<TABLE>
<TR>
<TD>
BATCH SUMMARY
<A TARGET="_blank" HREF="#" onclick="JavaScript:showBatchDetail(1000);">(Batch Detail)</A>
</TD>
</TR>
<TR>
Show some data ...
</TR>
</TABLE>
-------end of ShowBatchSummary.jsp--------

How we can use jsf tags in included jsp enclosed in subview tags

Hello everybody,
I am developing web app by using jsf. I am including a jsp page "header.jsp" into another jsp page "main.jsp". The header.jsp page is enclosed in jsf subview tag on main.jsp page. The header.jsp contains some static html code and some jsf tags like "outputText". When i added tag library url in header.jsp then my app was not even not initiating and i was getting following exception
ERROR [UIComponentTag] Faces context not found. getResponseWriter will fail. Check if the FacesServlet has been initialized at all in your web.xml.
16:22:16,890 ERROR [[jsp]] Servlet.service() for servlet jsp threw exception
java.lang.NullPointerException
at javax.faces.webapp.UIComponentTag.setupResponseWriter(UIComponentTag.java:929)
at javax.faces.webapp.UIComponentTag.doStartTag(UIComponentTag.java:310)
....Now i removed jsf tag library url from included jsp "header.jsp" so now my app is running but only static html data is being displayed but the value in the jsf tag "outputText" is not being printed in the browser
kindly help me. i would be very thankful....

Your question has nothing to do with Sun Java System Directory Server.

How do I add an included jsp to my project and not get a compile error?

Hi,
I have a project with some included jsp's however if I add them to the project, when I build I get a compile error as the jsp uses variables from the calling jsp.
Any ideas on how to get round this.
Thanks
DM

There are two main ways that I deal with this problem (yeah, it sucks, but it sort of makes sense that it happens...) (I presume you're talking static include here...)
#1 - name the included file with an extension that JDev will not try to compile (.jspf - for JSP Fragment - is common) Then it will be compiled in with the including page, but won't gag the project compilation. Advantage - it works, and you find out at compile time if you hosed up the variable reference. Disadvantage: JDev tries really, really, really hard to keep you from naming a JSP file with an extension of .jspf I normally create the .jsp file in JDev, remove it from the project, rename the file outside of JDeveloper, then add it back to the project - pain in the butt, but it works (and you probably aren't building scads of these included files...)
#2 - add the variable to be referenced to the pageContext implicit object as an attribute in your including page (ex, <% pageContext.setAttribute("myVar", myVar); %>), then reference that attribute in your included JSP (ex, <%= pageContext.getAttribute("myVar") %>) . It will compile fine (as the compiler has no way of knowing if the pageContext attribute actually exists, it just sees that the syntax is good and motors along merrily. Advantage: don't have to have differently named JSP files (which isn't actually a big deal). Disadvantage: You hvae to add the variable to the pageContext (and you have to always add Object derivatives, as primitives won't go into a hash) and you don't find out if you screwed the variable up until runtime (when it tries the getAttribute, which could return null if you didn't properly set it to start with) vs at compile-time w/ the direct reference.
HTH!

Sreenadha Reddy KIt is possible , u just have to change all the files and save them all again, clear the temp dirs where all the jsp's as compiled. Now after all this try , it should work .

Including jsp form in multiple jsps

Hi
I have a requirement to include a common jsp form in several other jsps that live in different web applications. For e.g. there is test_form.jsp taht I can access via http://www.test.com/common/test_form.jsp. There are several other jsps /app1/call_test1.jsp , /app2/call_test1.jsp taht need to include the /common/test_form.jsp. These jsps just provide different look with specific images etc.. We also need the pages to be accessed via those specific urls.
The form is showing fine. But when I submit the included form, I am submitting to the wrapper jsp(say /app1/call_test1.jsp which I am passing as aparam to teh include), if any validation errors its supposed to show on /app1/call_test1.jsp. But its not showing them. If I call the include jsp separately in the browser, its working fine. How can I get the form errors dispalyed on the wrppaer.jsp??
Any help is appreciated
Thanks
