Some way to include() from inside a TagSupport instance?

[Chris Corbyn]

I'm struggling to see a way to do the equivalent of:

<jsp:include .. />

By writing my own Tag for it (because the actual path will be unknown to the template).

If I do a simple (in a class extending TagSupport):

ServletContext context = pageContext.getServletContext();
      context.getRequestDispatcher(actionView).include(request, response);

Then what happens is that the included JSP is output *before* the rest of the template rather than being nested at the point where the tag is invoked.

If there's something better suited to this than just JSP and tag libraries let me know because I could do with learning about these other terms I'm hearing tossed around (there's too many :P jsp, jsf, jstx, jspx..).

You should be able to use include without issue. Perhaps this article might help?

*chuckles* I completely missed PageContext.include() and was using RequestDispatcher.include(). Thinking about it logically, it makes perfect sense why I got the template being output too early
