Subject: RequestDispatcher.include loses request.attribute

I have written a tag that will include another jsp's contents based on a
user's login status.  I am attempting to pass data to the included jsp(s) by
setting an attribute on the request.  I then call
RequestDispatcher.include(req, resp).  The problem I am enountering is that
the included jsp does not see the attribute I set in the request within the
tag code.

It looks like the attributes are cleared before the included jsp is run.

I encountered this in SilverStream and it turned out to be a bug (which they
fixed).

Any ideas here?

TIA,

Bill Pfeiffer
