Help..help..help...with popup

Question

I need to know how to pass values from popup box to jps calling it. Popup window has many checkboxes. Once user click Done, those values should be displayed in a text field in the parent window. So far, I can only get it to reload within the popup window. I have included the codes, please tell me what I have done wrong...please..
//jsp1 will create a popup window if user click on address link
<TD align="right" width="106">Address Book</TD>
//jsp2 is the popup window
<FORM name="address" method="post" action="ComposeMessage.jsp">
<input type=submit name=insertAddress value="Insert Addresses">
<table align=left width=350>
<tr>
<td width="30"><b>To</b></td>
<td width="100"><b>CC</b></td>
<td width="117">First</td>
<td width="119">Last</td>
</tr>
     <%
     while(rs.next())
          { %>
          <tr onMouseOver="bgColor='cyan'" onMouseOut="bgColor='white'">
<td width="30"><input type="checkbox" name="mailTo" <%=toggleValue%> value='<%=rs.getString("lastName")%>'></td>
<td width="100"><input type="checkbox" name="mailCC" value='<%=rs.getString("lastName")%>'></td>
<td width="100"><%=rs.getString("firstName")%></td>
<td><%=rs.getString("lastName")%></td>
          </tr>
     <%          
     %>
     </table>
     </form>
//jsp1 codes to display values passing from jsp2
<%
     if (request.getParameter("mailTo") != null)
     String[] address = request.getParameterValues("mailTo");
     for (int i = 0; i < address.length; i++)
     {%>
          <%=address%>
<%
Is there anything wrong with these codes? anyone?

I hope I got everything here...
JSP1 will look for addr1, addr2, city, state, country in the first run. No values will be there, so they will be "". User will fill addr1, addr2, city, state in JSP1 and press the GoToCountry button. It will submit all the information filled in to JSP2 (Country.jsp)
Country.jsp will pull the submit value...if it is submit then it will forward to your final page. Otherwise, it will have a field for country input, but place all other variables into a hidden field. So, when you submit there, it will call Address.jsp (JSP1) again, and this time you will have values retrieved...and you would place into the fields...this time when you 'submit', you will goto your processingPage.jsp.
HOPE I HAVE NOT CONFUSED YOU...but take a look.
JSP1: Address.jsp
String addr1 = request.getParameter("addr1");
String addr2 = request.getParameter("addr2");
String city= request.getParameter("city");
String state= request.getParameter("state");
String country= request.getParameter("country");
***if each is equal to null, set to ""***;
<form name="callcountry" action="country.jsp">
<input type="text" name="addr1" value="<%=addr1%>" />
<input type="text" name="addr2" value="<%=addr3%>" />
<input type="text" name="city" value="<%=city%>" />
<input type="text" name="state" value="<%=state%>" />
<input type="hidden" name="country" value="<%=country%> />
<input type="submit" name="submitPage" value="GotoCountry" />
<input type="submit" name="submitPage" value="submit" />
</form>
JSP2: Country.jsp
String action=request.getParameter("submitpage");
if action.equals("submit")
<jsp:forward page="processingPage.jsp" />
String addr1 = request.getParameter("addr1");
String addr2 = request.getParameter("addr2");
String city= request.getParameter("city");
String state= request.getParameter("state");
String country= request.getParameter("country");
***if each is equal to null, set to ""***;
<form name="callcountry" action="address.jsp">
<input type="hidden" name="addr1" value="<%=addr1%>" />
<input type="hidden" name="addr2" value="<%=addr3%>" />
<input type="hidden" name="city" value="<%=city%>" />
<input type="hidden" name="state" value="<%=state%>" />
<input type="text" type="hidden" value="<%=country%> />
<input type="submit" value="fromCountry" />
</form>
