Passing a variable from jsp to javascript

Does anyone know of a tag library or something else which allows one to do the equivalent of:
<jsp2js jspVar="${myJspVar}" jsVar="myJsVar" />where the result would be a javascript assignment statement in the html which sets myJsVar equal to the value of myJspVar. I know there are some simple solutions for things like strings, ints, etc. but I have some multi-dimensional arrays, and would prefer not to have to code out something like this manually.

I'm pretty sure that won't work for arrays, (much less multi-dimensional ones).
EDIT: I did a little more looking and it seems that JSON or DWR will be able to suit my needs fairly well.

Pass a variable from JSP to embedded Script

I can't seem to find a way around this. Please help.
I need to get the value of "item.likes" from the JSP page and put it into the embedded Script.
Can I do that ?
Nothing I came up with worked, and I found nothing on the Internet. I searched for a lot of things. Is the only way to just implement that JSP page as a servlet ?
Please see code below
thank you !!
Dennis
<sql:setDataSource var="profileDS"
url="jdbc:mysql://localhost/test"
driver="com.mysql.jdbc.Driver"
user="xxx" password="xxx" />
<sql:query var="profileQuery" dataSource="${profileDS}">
SELECT likes
FROM profiles where likes=?
<sql:param value="${param.likes}"/>
</sql:query>
<c:forEach var="item" items="${profileQuery.rows}">
c:out value="${item.likes}"/>
<%
String dd= request.getAttribute("item.likes");
out.write(dd); //does not work here ... should print out the value of item.likes
%>
</c:forEach>

Some funny scooping with forEach. But if you put a "<c:set var="item.likes" value="${item.likes}" scope="request"/>" first inside the loop it is possible to use that value for your script. But using your sample the printout gets funny. All script output first and then the EL-created out.
Hopes this helps you anyway.

Passing variables from JSP to workflow

I want to pass some variables from my JSP forms to a workflow. The workflow is triggered when I call processLaunch.jsp with the name of the workflow. I couldn't figure out a way to have the input fields in my JSP form passed to the workflow.
If anyone can provide me with some answer, I'd greatly appreciate it.

<Property name='postURL'>
<block>
<concat>
<s>user/processLaunch.jsp?id=</s>
<ref>ConstantData.REGISTERED_PROCESSES.WF_COMMON_ITARUPDATE</ref>
</concat>
</block>
</Property>
I have this code on the form...how should I pass a op_enduserId from here to my workflow. Can I pass it by query string &op_enduserId=enduserId

Is it possible to pass a variable from one animation to another?

I have multiple animations on the same page. I need to pass a variable from one to the other.
Animation One has this:
sym.setVariable("myVarOne", 1);
Animation Two has this:
var myVarOneInTwo=Edge.getComposition("EDGE-12345678").getVariable("myVarOne");
Seems like it should work, but kinda hard to tell. I put in:
console.log("myVarOneInTwo = " + myVarOneInTwo);
But I get: Javascript error in event handler! Event Type = timeline
So it seems that it doesn't like getting a variable from another animation.
Is there a way to pull a variable from one animation into another?

Sorry also had to fix this:
var myVarOneInTwo=Edge.getComposition("EDGE-12345678").getVariable("myVar One");
To this:
var myVarOneInTwo=Edge.getComposition("EDGE-12345678").getStage().getVariable("myVar One");

How to pass a variable from HTML to Flash

I have built my flash ad banner in Flash 9 and now want the
HTML code to pass the url over to the flash movie that it should
jump to when clicked.
The info in the help file seems out of date for the latest
HTML template as it uses mainly JavaScript to get round IE's
dreadful embeding issue. So my problem is, how do I pass a variable
from the HTML to the actionScript specified int he Help file
(running on a full screen button) as shown below?
myButton_btn.onRelease = function() {
if (clickTAG.substr(0, 5) == "http:") {
getURL(clickTAG);
via the html code now used by Flash 9 which is like this:

<html lang="en">
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html;
charset=iso-8859-1" />
<title>Advert_long</title>
<script language="javascript"> AC_FL_RunContent = 0;
</script>
<script language="javascript"> DetectFlashVer = 0;
</script>
<script src="AC_RunActiveContent.js"
language="javascript"></script>
<script language="JavaScript" type="text/javascript">

</script>
</head>
<body bgcolor="#ffffff">



<script language="JavaScript" type="text/javascript">

You should use SWFObject to embed your Flash. Not only does
it make
embedding more straightforward, it makes passing query
parameters very easy.

How can I pass a variable between JSP and Role Form

I need to pass a variable from (a copy of) applicationmodify.jsp to the IDM Role Form so that the variable is available within the Role Form at display. We've tried getAttribute and setAttribute modifying both the Role Form and the applicationmodify JSP and can get the form to the role form but not accessible but have had no other success. Has anyone had any success in doing this? Any suggestions would be appreciated.

if by _root level you mean you're loading something into
_level0 you can't won't be able to use the localconnection. the
sharedobject is your only option.

LoadVars-using send to pass a variable from flash to php

For the life of me, I've tried everything:
I've researched LoadVars on Adobe forum, used David Powers'
books, googled 'flash to php', LoadVars, etc. and tried
sendAndLoad, send, and using $_POST, $_GET, $_REQUEST.
$HTTP_POSTVARS but I keep getting this same error. any advice
please?
I have a Unix server running Apache/PHP 4 - LoadVars worked
to load name-value pairs into an array -see thread)
My goal with this simple app is to prototype being able to
pass a variable from flash to a variable in php.
Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_VARIABLE in

php code: (I also tried $_POST, $_GET, $_REQUEST.

How to pass a variable from one class to another class?

Hi,
Is it possible to pass a variable from one class to another? For e.g., I need the value of int a for calculation purpose in method doB() but I get an error <identifier> expected. What does the error mean? I know, it's a very, very simple question but once I learn this, I promise to remember it forever. Thank you.
class A {
int a;
int doA() {
      a = a + 1;
      return a;
class B {
int b;
A r = new A();
r.a; // error: <identifier> expected. What does that mean ?
int doB() {
     int c = b/a; // error: operator / cannot be applied to a
}Thank you!

elaine_g wrote:
I am wondering why does (r.a) give an error outside the method? What's the reason it only works when used inside the (b/r.a) maths function? This is illegal syntax:
class B {
int b;
A r = new A();
r.a; //syntax error
}Why? Class definition restricts what you can define within a class to a few things:
class X {
    Y y = new Y(); //defining a field -- okay
    public X() { //defining a constructor -- okay
    void f() { //defining a method -- okay
}... and a few other things, but you can't just write "r.a" there. It also makes no sense -- that expression by itself just accesses a field and does nothing with it -- why bother?
This is also illegal syntax:
int doB() {
      A r = new A();
      r.a; // error: not a statement
}Again, all "r.a" does on its own is access a field and do nothing with it -- a "noop". Since it has no effect, writing this indicates confusion on the part of the coder, so it classified as a syntax error. There is no reason to write that.

Passing a variable from a movie clip to the main timeline

Hi,
I'm having trouble passing a variable from a movie clip in my
flash file to the main timeline.
I have a movieclip with the instance name IntroNav which
contains several buttons. Clicking a button sets the variable
"page" to a specific name, i.e. page = "home"
However, outside of the movie clip, on the main timeline I am
unable to call this variable, and "page" seems to have no value.
Can anyone tell me why this is and how to solve it?
Thanks

Umm, yes ... declare your variables correctly.
var page:String = new String(); //proper complete
var page:String; //strict typing
var page:String = "home"; //stirct typing with value
declaration
Do not declare the variable in your buttons, you would have
to do so in every button and be constantly resetting the value.
Declare it on the main timeline at the lowest level. You do not
need to use it as a _global, you just need to resolve your path
issues. You can 'set' the variable value from a button, without any
problem, but you have to call to the variable correctly.
You do not 'name' a variable as "_root.page" , the '_root'
refers to the lowest level of the SWF or the main timeline, as does
a call to ' _level0' (that's a zero). If the variable is declared
on the main timeline, and you're calling from the MC/button or
anywhere you can refer to the variable by calling to it by
the proper path of '_root.page'
To set the variable from any of your button/MC instances
call:
_root.page = "value"; OR _level0.page = "value";
But you must have the varibale declared on the main timeline,
and only once and the playhead should be stopped or it will reset
the value to the default upon looping.

Is it possible to pass a variable from a shell script back to an Automator action?

Is it possible to pass a variable from a shell script back to an Automator action?
For instance, if I assign a value of foo to $var1 in my shell script how would I retrieve/pass that value in the next Automator action. I see that there is a variable called "Shell Script" but I can't any information on how to use it.

red_menace,
Thanks but I still don't understand how to pass a single value that was set in the UNIX scipt back to Automator has a variable. Take the example below, I write 4 varables to STDOUT and all 4 are stored in a variable named "storage". How do I assign 1 of these values to the Automator "storage" variable? For instance if I wanted to assign the value of $var2 to "storage" , how would I do that?

Passing a variable from Captivate 5 to Flash CS5/ActionScript 3

I don't get it. Why is it so difficult to pass a variable from Captivate 5 to AS3/Flash CS5. I must be making it harder than it really is. I cannot figure it out. Can anyone help?
I have a variable (gpDone = 1) defined in Captivate 5 (it's a guided practice) on the last frame which will indicate that the learner has completed the guided practice file.
Now I want to pass that variable back to Flash/AS3 so I can evaluate whether I should show the Continue button so they can continue. They have to complete the guided practice before they can continue. If it is equal to 1, the Continue button will display. If it is not equal to 1, the Continue button will not display, but a message will display telling them they have to complete the guided practice in order to continue in the course.
Do I need to edit the Flash html? Or just put code in the Flash timeline or the associated AS file?
Help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.
CAH

Having the same problem...getting variable values FROM captivate to my inserted .swf (not widgets).
I can set the value from the .swf to the captivate using Object(parent.parent.parent.parent).captivateVariable but not the other way around.
Very frustrating.
I hope someone answers your query.
