Why do you need two methods to do the same action?
How is parameter different than attribute? specific situation each one is required? thanks.
parameters are String values bound to String names(keys), are set by the
J2EE server, from the HTTP request sent by the browser.
An attribute can be any object bound to a String name(key), you have to explicitly bind it or unbind it.
Have a look at
J2EE API, a programmer's best friend
