Collecting data with JSTL

Question

Hello,
I am using jstl to display data in a jsp. The data is being collected in a servlet and forwarding to
the jsp
<td><size><img src="${bale.balpic}" height="60" width="60"/></size></td>
                        <td><name>${bale.id}</name></td>
                        <td><name>${bale.balname}</name></td>
                        <td><description>${bale.description}</description></td>
                        <td><colour>${bale.colour}</colour></td>
                        <td><price>${bale.price}</price></td>
                        <td><size>${bale.balsize}</size></td>
                        <td><department>${bale.departmentent.departmentname  }</department></td>
                        <td><input type="submit" value="add to basket" name="addtobasket" /></td>What I would like to do is collect the following as a getParameter() in the servlet so i can pass data onto another jsp -
  <td><name>${bale.lid}</name></td>THanking you
