I agree that the spec is not clear with how to treat EL expressions. From a practical point of view, if I have a render parameter:

name1 = value1

and I include/forward a JSP using:

/my.jsp?name1=value3

then the use case here is that I want to override name1, and I should not have to add business logic to my.jsp in order to display value3. I should be able to simply use:

${name1}

But the output is value1, which in my interpretation means that the render parameter was not overridden by the query string parameter. But there is a fallacy in my logic that I haven't figured out yet, which is why I started this thread, and the answer I think has to do with how EL is implemented behind-the-scenes. Does anyone know how ${name1} gets evaluated? I looked at the generated servlet for my.jsp but it was no help.
