Description

In our testing with webwork, we found that the URL tag includeParams functionality does not work under Websphere 5 and 6. The issue is that after a forward, the call to request.getQueryString() always returns null, regardless of whether there were query parameters for the original request. The fix is to additionally look for getAttribute("javax.servlet.forward.query_string") since this is where this information is stored for 2.4 servlet containers.
