The jsp:param Element

• Some of the standard actions allow jsp:param elements in their body. jsp:forward is a case in hand.

• We could replace our static “missing parameter” error page, noparam.html, with a JSP page that itself takes a parameter, specifying which parameter was missing from the original request.

• The jsp:forward element would be replaced with:

  <jsp:forward page=“noparam.jsp”>
  
  <jsp:param name=“missing” value=“who” />
  </jsp:forward>
