I have a two jsp pages. One returns values as appropriate. The other sets a variable in itself by calling the first one and reading the value it returns. This is what I mean:
And another page skeleton,
Any ideas? Thanks in advance.

JSPs are not methods that you "call". Perhaps you should back up a bit and explain what you're trying to accomplish. You may be barking up the wrong tree.

I have many jsp pages, each returning things according to its code. However, I have another page that needs the same data, but in one form. So I thought I could get the data by running each of the other pages separately and retrieve the results, instead of having all the code on one page. This is what I mean:
time.jsp displays only the time
ip.jsp displays the next available ip
updateip.jsp > gets the date and the next available ip. This is where I was thinking; instead of replecating time.jsp and ip.jsp functions in updateip.jsp, why not ask time.jsp for the time and ip.jsp for the ip as needed?

Includes are still very useful in JSP but there are better approaches to re-using code than this.
This article by our esteemed sheriff Bear Bibeault explains why and how MVC and scriptless JSP pages work better.
