Well, if the two jsps should be different, you should ask yourself if 
its a good idea to make them as siblings or if it would be better to 
make two individual jsps.

Or you could add some logic to your jsps which is triggered by a property:

As I wrote in the last mail, properties for siblings can be different.
Define a new property, lets say "extra.textbox". On the jsp 
"intg/index.jsp" this property has the value ""true", on the other 
sibling "com/index.jsp" it has the value "false".

Now add some logic to your jsp, where you read the property and 
depending on its value show the extra textbox or not.

In OpenCms, this is a typical way to control something in your JSPs, use 
user defined properties to trigger some logic in the JSP code.


Kind Regards,
Michael.
