How To Create A Map?

Question

I have three properties: sort, order, and offset
sort=<%=sort%>
order=<%=order%>
offset=<%=nextOffset%>How do I create a Map?

Answer 1

I want to put sort, order, and offset in a Map
and then store that Map as a JavaBean property. First
of all, how do I put sort, order, and offset in a Map
after I get a map object:
Map map = new HashMap();
Well, in "regular" java it would be something like map.put("sort", sort);
map.put("order", order);
map.put("offset", offset); (assuming you've properly defined and intialized those three variables)
I don't recall how to do it in JSP. It's been quite a while. <jsp:usebean> maybe?
