APAR status
Closed as program error.

Error description
Customer write JSP using JSP:Plugin take to access an applet.
When compiled by the WebSphere JSP processor, the NAME attribute
set by the JSP:Plugin tag does not get included in the java code
produced.  This leads to the applet no being able to speak to
the JSP, hence, the applet does not appear to work.
Local fix Problem summary
****************************************************************

*                 utilizing <jsp:plugin ../> tag inside        *

*                      inside of the <jsp:plugin/> tag when    *

****************************************************************
* RECOMMENDATION:                                              *
****************************************************************
WebSphere improperly parses the JSP file when using the
<jsp:plugin/> tag in a JSP.  The code fails to add the
attribute "name" when generating the applet tag.
Problem conclusion
Modified the tag parser to include the attribute "name" in the
generated source code for JSPs that contain <jsp:plugin/>
tags.
