Is nesting jsp variables possible?

is there some way i can do this:
${dragonfly:to_cyrillic(${cfname})}as it is, it breaks when it hits the 2nd '{'
here's the code block:
            <form name = "studentID" action="selElec.jsp" method="GET" >
                <sql:query var="v_students">
                    SELECT * FROM STUDENTS ORDER BY HISTORY_CODE
                </sql:query>
                <select name="histCode"/>
                    <c:forEach var="row" items="${v_students.rows}">
                        <c:set var="cfname" scope="session" value="${row.C_FNAME}" />
                        <option value ="${row.HISTORY_CODE}">${row.HISTORY_CODE} - ${row.LNAME}, ${dragonfly:to_cyrillic(${cfname})}</option>
                    </c:forEach>
                </select>
                <input type="submit" value="Next >>" >
            </form>

Can you nest ESI variables?

For example, I want to lookup a value in an ESI Environment file. However, the name of the value to lookup is specified in the query string.
So I'd be doing something like the following to extract the desired value:
$(env{$(QUERY_STRING{name})})
...where 'env' is the name of the esi:environment.
However, this does not work. Is it possible to nest esi variables in this way. If so, how?
Many thanks,
Francis

Any plans to implement this?
It would be very useful in some situations. For example, you have a page that outputs a value from an esi environment file, where the name of that value is specified in the Query String.
So your URL is something like:
lookup.jsp?lookup=firstName
Then, in lookup.jsp, you have something like:
$(env{$(QUERY_STRING{lookup})})
...which does a look up in the environment file for the key specified using the 'lookup' query string parameter. In the example above, the value for 'firstName' would be retrieved from the environment file.
Any chance of implementing nested ESI variables in the near future?

How to get javascript variable in jsp variable

Hi all,
i have a variable str in my javascript function
var str = somevaluei want this str value in jsp variable in the same page...
how can this be done..???
any ideas...
Thanks

I dont know if its possible or not.
Actually it depends on what do you want to do with the variable.
as far as assisginng value to the hidden variable is concerned it can be done this way.
<% jsp code
String hiddenVar = "";
%>
< html code
<input type type = "hidden" name="hidden" vale="<%=hiddenVar %>"
html ends>
while in js function you can assign vale to the hidden variable which will ultimately assign value to the JSP variable as follows.
var str = "value";
document.form_name.hidden_field_name.value = str.
hope this hepls.

I want to assign the value of a Javascript variable to JSP Variable

I want to assign the value of a Javascript variable to JSP Variable .. for example :
<%
Bla Bla Bla
%>
<script>
var JavaScriptVariable="hello"
</script>
<%
String JSPVariable=// The Value of JavaScriptVariable ;
%>
How can i do that ??
Thanks

>I want to assign the value of a Javascript variable to JSP Variable
cannot be done.Friend try to understand concepts properly Javascript is always excuted by the browser @clientside where as JSPCode is executed Websever(ServletContainer) @serverside.Through you are combining JSP Code blocks(Tags,Expressions,scriptlets...) & javascript under a single page webserver can only identify what is their under JSP Code blocks.
Hope this could be an appropriate answer for your question.
However,you can as well submit a request by encoding your URL with request parameters and the submit to the page and then collect it using request.getParameter(name).
But under a single context state it is not possible

Passing JavaScript values to JSP variables

Can any body correct the follwing code
<Script language="JavaScript">
function test( x )
<%
int num = x;
num = num * 2;
%>
v.value = "<%out.print(num);%>";
<input type="button" name="b" value="test" onClick="test(5)">
<input type="text" name="v" value="0">
In short, I am trying to pass JavaScript value to JSP variable. I hope that it is possible to do that. If it is possible then how can I do it. I want to assing the variable x passed to the JavaScript function called test to the JSP variable called num.
Regards,
Ageel

Thank you for your reply,,,
I think then the only way to do it is to post the
value on the server and then use request.getParameter
method in jsp code
but the question now how can I post values to the
server using JavaScript without reloading the pageyes... you can to it by create a new popup window which will submit the value to server after page was loaded... then, server return a value to the same window in html/jsp page which then using javascript to set it back to the opener and close up the window... however, this is not a good choice unless you have no other alternative...
>
There is other possible solution
if I can get the text field value from the same page
without reloading it that would work fine and will
solve my problem, is it possible?yes... you can get the value from the textfield...
for example :
function showValueInTextField()
alert(document.forms[0].elements["mytextfieldname"].value);
>
My final question> can jsp change things on the same
page without reloading it. I mean can it work like
JavaScript so that I can use it's internal functions
instead of using java script :S
not really know what you trying to say here...

Assigning html input value to a jsp variable

I have the following problem: I need to assign the value of html <input> field to a jsp variable. This should be done without submittion of the form.
<form name="main">
<table>
<tr>
<td><input type="text" name="gantry" value="123"></td>
</tr>
<table>
</form>
Is there any way to access main.gantry.value from jsp and assign it to a variable? I tried
<% prevGantry = main.gantry.value; %>
but it didn't work, and the problem is not with parsong or initialisation. Please, can anyone help?
Best regards, SoVa.

No it can't be done. You are mixing up java with javascript.
Java/JSP runs on the server end. Generates an HTML page and stops running.
The page loads in the browser, and and can run javascript locally.
The only way to run java code again is to go through the request/response process. ie submit a form, click a link, make an Ajax call...
The only way to get a field from the screen into a java variable is via request.getParameter().

Assigning a javascript value to a JSP variable

How do i assign a javascript value to a JSP variable?
eg
<%
String JSPvar;
%>
<script language="JavaScript1.2">

</script>
<%
JSPvar = javascriptVar ???
%>

You do know that the JSP runs on the server and generates HTML, including Javascript, that is executed on the client, don't you?

Help: How to assign dynamically a javascript variable to a jsp variable???

Hello all,
What I need to do is to assign the value of the html form element which is a checkbox in this case:
<input name="ADB02_checkbox" type=checkbox id="ADB02_checkbox" onClick="decide_enable_or_disable_particular_checkbox()" value="ADB02">
to a jsp variable :
<%
String riderCode = "";
%>
Its dynamic because i need to do different operations based on different rider codes like in this function:
function decide_enable_or_disable_particular_checkbox() {
var rider = document.rider_form;
alert(rider.ADB02_checkbox.value);
if (rider.<%= riderCode%>_checkbox.checked == true) {
enable_all_row_elements_for_<%= riderCode%>();
else {
     disable_all_row_elements();
which uses the naming of the rider code to call other corresponding functions.
so is there any way that you guys ca suggest a solution.
what i thought is to do this:
function decide_enable_or_disable_particular_checkbox() {
var rider = document.rider_form;
HERE--> riderCode = rider.ADB02_checkbox.value;
alert(rider.ADB02_checkbox.value);
if (rider.<%= riderCode%>_checkbox.checked == true) {
enable_all_row_elements_for_<%= riderCode%>();
else {
     disable_all_row_elements();
or
add an onFocus="riderCode = document.rider_form.ADB02_checkbox.value;" in the checkbox tag.
but can i do that or is there any other way or is it totally impossible to assign javascript values to jsp variables.

Hi again,
I got a problem here abt looping in javascript.
The prob is that only the 1st loop works the rest are not.
So only the checkbox in the 1st row is enabled, the rest aren't.(only ADB02 is enabled not DLP01 cause ADB02 is 1st in the loop)
Here are 2 of many of the checkboxes in different rows:
<input name="ADB02_checkbox" type="checkbox" id="ADB02_checkbox" value="checkbox" onClick="val_checkbox()" disabled=true>
<input name="DLP01_checkbox" type="checkbox" id="DLP01_checkbox" value="checkbox" onClick="val_checkbox()" disabled=true>
This is declared in jsp:
<%
//to be used with javascript function prepare_elements() for checking to enable/disable checkbox , to check age base and limit of insured
String[][] riderCheckArray = {
{allPlans.PLAN_HER_MY_FUTURE, allRiders.RIDER_ACCIDENTAL_DEATH_BENEFIT, "20", "60"},
{allPlans.PLAN_HER_MY_FUTURE, allRiders.RIDER_LIFELINE_BENEFIT, "20", "50"},

{allPlans.PLAN_HER_MY_FUTURE, allRiders.RIDER_10_YEAR_RENEWABLE_AND_CONVERTIBLE_MANUTERM_RIDER, "16", "60"},
%>
Here's the script (the riderCheckArray[any no.] should be eg: riderCheckArray[0] (has an i in front))
<script>

function prepare_elements() {
var rider = document.rider_form;

for (i=0 ; i < <%= riderCheckArray.length%> ; i++) {
if ("<%= txtPlanCode%>" == "<%= riderCheckArray[i][0]%>" ) {
riderCode = "<%= riderCheckArray[i][1]%>";
if (<%= insuredAge.intValue()%> < <%= Integer.parseInt(riderCheckArray[i][2])%> ||
<%= insuredAge.intValue()%> > <%= Integer.parseInt(riderCheckArray[i][3])%>) {
disable_particular_checkbox();
alert("This rider cannot be attached. This rider can only be attached for age range " +
<%= riderCheckArray[i][2]%> +
" to " +
<%= riderCheckArray[i][3]%>);
else {
enable_particular_checkbox();

function enable_particular_checkbox() {
var Rdr_Checkbox = riderCode + "_checkbox";
var rider = document.rider_form;
rider.all(Rdr_Checkbox).disabled = false;
rider.all(Rdr_Checkbox).style.background ="FFFFFF";

var Rdr_Checkbox = riderCode + "_checkbox";
var rider = document.rider_form;

Assining a bean attribute to a jsp variable

I am writing a struts application and am using
<bean:write name="configattribute" property="name"/>
to print out info on my jsp page.
I was wondering if I could assign that value to a local jsp variable so I can check its value and change the colour of the text accordingly.
e.g.
String name = <bean:write name="configattribute" property="name"/>;
if name.equals("Ben"){
out.print(<font color=\"red\">;
else{
out.print(<font color=\"blue\">;
}

You should still be able to use the code I listed...the logic:iterate tag creates the bean "configname" in the page scope. So you should be able to do something like this:
<logic:iterate id="configname" name="confignames">
   <tr>
      <td>
<% ConfigName configname = (ConfigName)pageContext.getAttribute( "configname" );
   String color = "blue";
   if( "julius".equalsIgnoreCase( configName.getOwner( ) ) )
      color = "red";
   } %>
        <span style="color: <%= color %>"><bean:write name="configname" property="owner"/></span>
      </td>
      <td>
         <bean:write name="configname" property="name"/>
      </td>
   </tr>
</logic:iterate>Does that sound right?

Unable assign a BPM Object field value to a JSP Variable using "invoke"

Hi,
I'm unable to retrieve a value returned by a BPM Object Method and use it in JSP. Here is what I'm trying to achieve:
BPM object named : "myObject" has a method "getRequiredValue" which returns a "String". I want to assign the value returned by "getRequiredValue" to a JSP Variable "myVariable" using invoke method as below:
<% String myVariable = ""; %>
<f:invoke var="${myObject}" methodName="getRequiredValue" retAttName="myVariable"/>
<% out.println ("myVariable: " + myVariable); %>
When I execute the above code I don't get the value being returned by "getRequiredValue" into "myVariable".
Any help would be highly appreciated!
regards,
MK

1. Make sure you mark the "Server Side Method" property of the getRequiredValue method to "Yes".
2. I guess you dont need to specify "<% String myVariable = ""; %>". Try removing it.
3. Replace "<% out.println ("myVariable: " + myVariable); %>" by <c:out value="${myVariable}"/> just in case!
4. Lastly, I hope "myObject" is the name of the instance variable in your screenflow, and not the BPM object name.
Hope this helps
