accessing objects in request

[James Workmen]

In Action class, I am setting
Boolean editproj = new Boolean(true);
request.setAttribute("IS_EDIT_PROJECT",editproj);

in my JSP, when I compile this,

(1) <logic resent parameter="IS_EDIT_PROJECT">
IS_EDIT_PROJECT is found.
</logic resent>
<br>
(2) <bean arameter id="isNew" name="IS_EDIT_PROJECT" value="IS_EDIT_PROJECT not found"/>
<input type="text" name="returnto" value="<%=isNew%>">



The answer I get
(1) Nothis. So that mean, it is not present
(2) IS_EDIT_PROJECT not found


But, when I try
<%
Boolean checkProject = (Boolean)request.getAttribute("IS_EDIT_PROJECT");
boolean isNewProject = checkProject.booleanValue();
%>

isNewProject = <%= checkProject.toString()%>
<br>
<% if(checkProject.booleanValue()) { %>
Booelan value is true.
<%}
else { %>
Boolean value is false
<% } %>


The answer I get is
Booelan value is true.


Help!!

James,
Parameters and attributes are different. Parameters are passed from the previous page (like when a user submits a form.) Attributes can be set at any time and are distinguished by the get/setAttribute() call.
