<P><FONT SIZE=2>Just a hunch, but it could it be that your first line, "aCmsJspActionElement.include(uriOfPage2, "body");", defines the value of element "body" and then when the cms tag displays "body" it get page2's value, not page1's (the parent page), because "body" has been set by the inclusion of page2.</FONT></P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2>This would explain why the first one works (print out page1's value for "body", then include page2 which changes the value of "body" and displays it) and the second one doesn't (page2 is included, displays its value for "body" as well as changing that value for the page, then the simple <cms:include> tag merely displays what value is set for "body", which in this case is "body" from page2).</FONT></P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2>That was really confusing, hope it makes sense. I don't know if that's the reason, but it's my hypothesis, in which case this is a "feature". ;)</FONT></P>
