Using GetPageContext

• Exposes underlying J2EE engine’s PageContext Object

  • Allows us to do server-side includes/forwards
  • Among both JSP and CF templates!
  • Variables shared between them
    • Request scope, by default
    • Application and session, if CFAPPLICATION has no NAME

• It also opens up some more possibilities because you can get the ServletContext from the PageContext...

• See Sun docs for more info
