Can I use a jsp:include to include an entire JSP page as tab content?

I'm trying to define JSP pages as content for my tabs using the "jsp:include" - like this (Note: "page0.jsp")...

        <ul id="smTabs" class="nav nav-tabs" style="margin-bottom: 15px;">
            <li class="active">
                <a href="/#page0"    data-toggle="tab">Page0</a>
            </li>   
        -
        -
        -
        <div id="smTabContent" class="tab-content">
            <div class="tab-pane fade active in" id="page0">
                <jsp:include page="page0.jsp" />                     
            </div>  

The problem:

When the user clicks on a tab, the "included" (i.e., "jsp:include") JSP page form fields are empty because the controller has not been initialized.

QUESTION:

What "href=" value will succeed in both revealing the tab contents (e.g., page0.jsp) and, as well, initialize the controller so the page is displayed properly with data?

(sort of a corollary question - what "href=" value or technique will allow this page to be navigated to from another page?)

Thanks for any help.

Here's what the empty form for page0.jsp looks like...

Here is what it should look like...
