Repost, since no answer in JSP-JSP/CascadingStyleSheet/Javascript problem

Hello, I've got a JSP page that has included a Javascript (JS).
In that JS, a Cascading Style Sheet (CSS) is included. Also on the JSP page, I have some code that makes use of the JS to create a Windows-style combobox, which is not available through raw HTML. The code is as follows:
<BODY>
<SCRIPT language="javascript" src="ComboBox.js"></SCRIPT>
<SCRIPT language="javascript">
dm=new ComboBox("dm")
dm.add(
       new ComboBoxItem("barge",1),
       new ComboBoxItem("benluc",2),
       new ComboBoxItem("benlieeeeck",3),
       new ComboBoxItem("taco",4)
</SCRIPT>
<CENTER><H2>Choose Project S/O</H2><CENTER>
<FORM METHOD=POST ACTION="">
<% //DB connection to populate the combo box %>
<% // Database Connection Parameters
    String DB = "dbname",
    query = "",
    HOST = "jdbc:postgresql://URL:5432/",
    ACCOUNT = "username",
    PASSWORD = "pwd",
    DRIVER = "org.postgresql.Driver";
    // authentication properties
    Properties props = new Properties();
    props.setProperty("user", ACCOUNT);
    props.setProperty("password", PASSWORD);
    // load driver and prepare to access
    Class.forName(DRIVER).newInstance();
    Connection con = DriverManager.getConnection(HOST + DB, props);
    Statement stmt = con.createStatement();
    try{
    query= "SELECT * FROM Projects ORDER BY Name";
    ResultSet rs = stmt.executeQuery(query);
%>
Project S/O:
<SELECT NAME=projso>
<option value="dummy">Choose one...</option>
<% while (rs.next() ) { %>
<OPTION VALUE="<%=rs.getString("Name") %>">
<%=rs.getString("Name")%> ,   <%=rs.getString("Desc")%>
</OPTION>
<% } %>
</SELECT>The problem I am experiencing is that if I move the 2nd SCRIPT tag anywhere but where it is, it makes IE bomb and takes me to an error page. The error message is as follows:
"Internet Explorer cannot open site http://myURL. Operation aborted."
Any ideas?

I tried making it static HTML with the same result.
I took out all the JSP code before doing so, obviously.
I think it has to do with my code and the HTML FORM tag.
Anyway, here's the requested code, ComboBox.js

Palm TX to I touch and memos -- repost since no answers !

I recently got an I touch 2nd generation and was able to transfer my contacts (although not their categories which is a bummer since I look at my "Doctor" list to find my MDs not their names...)... now I would like to transfer my huge "Memo" file, by category of course to the I touch. I downloaded a memo app called Fliq Notes which seems to meet my needs, but how do I actually do the swap? Is the name of my Palm Memo file "memopad.dat"? if yes, what do I need to do? Any ideas greatly appreciated... or another app if you think that's better....

I had the same issue, but I had already installed MarkSpace as my sync manager for my Tx, and all my Tx notes were in MarkSpace Notes app. The transition to Fliq Notes was seamless. It was all handled by MarkSpace.

Forwarding JSP page through requestdispatcher problem in submiting form

Hello everyone,
I am very much new to servlet.
My problem is somewhat this....
when i am forwarding one JSP page by requestdispather , there is no problem.But after that when i am trying to submit one html form written inside the jsp page , the request is not submiting the jsp page rather it resides in the servlet.
The code in servlet is
RequestDispatcher rd =getServletContext().getRequestDispatcher("/applyConfirm.jsp");
rd.forward(request,response);
Now in (applyConfirm.jsp )jsp page one button is there , so when i will click that button the page has to be submitted.But its not submitting rather the request resides in the servlet.
Dose someone will have any idea.
Thanks in advance

First check what sort of button you are using. It should be of "submit" type.
Check the URL to witch URL it is submitting i.e. Action property in <FORM> tag.
Make sure for the URLs in the client i.e HTML ex: href, action, and so on use the thumb rule of prefixing "<%=request.getContextPath()%>/" in your JSP or in servlet add it in the java code.
This should solve the relative URL reference problem.
Hope this helps.
Cheers.

How to include a jsp page in another jsp jsp page

hi,
i m trying to include a jsp page name "header.jsp" into one jsp page name"selectattribute.jsp" i m using these commands in "selectattribute.jsp"
<%@include file "header.jsp"%> bcz both these jsp page are C:\program files\tomcat 4.0\webapps\examples\jsp\Poject\
but the problem is that , i m invoking this jsp page "selectattribute.jsp" from a servlet reportcontroller.java using REQUEST DISPATCHER.
the servlet is in
C:\Program files\tomcat 4.0\webapps\examples\WEB-INF\classes\Project\
i want to know how to include some other jsp page in a jsp page and how to invoke applet from jsp page when that particular jsp page is being invoked by servlet.
plz help
manish

use this for including in your selectattribute.jsp
<jsp:include page="header.jsp" flush="true"/>
I never tried calling an applet. I think you can write the code for calling the applet in a javabean method and call the method in the jsp

I even tried to compile from command line using mvn compile and get the same error :

If I look at my .m2 dir, I can see that it attempted to get the jar, but it wasn't able to grab it :

Hi Billy,
Try changing the URL from (http://repo.adobe.com/nexus/content/groups/public/) to (https://repo.adobe.com/nexus/content/groups/public/), i.e. add the https.
That should do it. Let us know if it doesn't work.

You do that on the browser end using JavaScript. For cookies, simply establish session variables in PHP or whatever you use. if the browser refuses them, they wil lreturn a respective value in the referrers...

JavaBeans in JSP on iPlanet server problem

Hi-
I have deployed several JSPs, but this is my first attempt at using JavaBeans in the pages. We are using the iPlanet 4.1 web server.
The following is my JSP code (MyTest.jsp):
<html>
<head>
<title> Test case</title>
</head>
<body>
<jsp: useBean id="myBean" class="Beans.MyBean" />
</body>
</html>
The following is the bean code:
package Beans
public class MyBean {
private String message = "No Message";
public String getMessage() {
return(message);
public void setMessage(String message) {
this.message = message;
I have the JSP and bean in the same directory. I'm not clear on where to put it on an iPlanet server. The bean compiles fine, and iPlanet seems to be able to see it. However, when I compile the JSP I get the following error on iPlanet:
recompiling JSP file: /<dir path>/Beans/MyTest.jsp
JSP compilation error: java.lang.Exception: JSP parse error (line24) - Incomplete tag ending of /jsp:useBean, stack: java.lang.Exception: JSP parse error(line 24) - Incomplete tag ending of /jspuseBean
I've looked through several books and the JSP coding to useBean looks fine. Is this error related to iPlanet? Is it tied to the directory structure? We are using JDK1.3, is it set up for JavaBeans - or do we need to download some other files?
Any help is welcomed!
Thanks,
Leilani

Leilani,
Have you got your JSP and beans to work. I'm having a similar problem. I am getting the following error when trying to load the JSP:

} catch (Exception ex) {
// global variables

I believe I have my iPalnet server configured correctly but it seems to me that it is a path problem. If anyone can point me in the right direction, I'd appreciate it. Thanks.

JSP variable in javascript

Can I use a jsp variable in javascript? If so, how? It would be used in an "if" statement:
function get This() {
if (document.form.tfName.checked==true) || (<%jsp>) {
then do this...}
}

My problem is I am grabbing a persistant value from a
value object: the value of a checkbox as
<%=InformationVO.isChecked()%>If (==true) i want javascript to enable a button on
load. If not disable it. Plus I hav javascript on
the page that controls this while the page is open.
Just don't know how to incorporate the two scenarios
s for:
1.checking the value to ernable/disable the sumbit on
load with the value of the VO
2. using javascript to control the enable/disable
while page is laodedYou want something like this?
<%
boolean enableButton = InformationVO.isChecked();
%>
<html>
<head>
<script language="javascript">
// load event, enables or displables button depending on the InformationVO.isChecked value.
function doMyLoadEvent(){
     if(<%=enableButton%>){
          // enable mySubmitButton object
     }else{
          // disable mySubmitButton object
// submits the form
function submitForm(){
     var frm = document.forms[0];
     frm.action = "path to your servlet goes here";
     frm.submit();
</script>
</head>
<body onload="javascript:doMyLoadEvent()">
Woopdy doo!
<form method="post" action="" name="">
<input type="button" name="mySubmitButton" value="Submit" onclick="javascript:submitForm()">
</form>
</body>

Calling jsp file from javascript function

How can i call a jsp file itself from javascript function written in it?

I do not think you can invoke the current jsp directly using javascript.
If the effect you are trying to achieve is to reload the page, then you could execute the servlet / code which called the current jsp.

JSP Linking in javascript

Hi,
I have downloaded the masthead portal archive and imported it into my NDS. I have added a couple of extra jsps and a javascript file. What I'm trying to do is have a popup window launch from my first jsp to hold my 2nd jsp via javascript. e.g.
The javascript calls: window.open("FFDialog.jsp","Dialog","width:200px;height:100px;toolbar:no;directories:no;status:no;menubar:no;scrollbars:no;resizable:no;modal:yes");
The popup opens, but doesn't contain my jsp (which is really just a basic html/js file).
I think its because my jsp sits under dist->PORTAL-INF->jsp and the javascript under dist->scripts hence FFDialog.jsp isn't in the same location. What needs to be the path in my window.open?
Cheers!

Hi Jo,
         In your jsp ,from where you are calling javascript function to call other jsp, write below code
         to get the app path.
<%String webpath = componentRequest.getWebResourcePath()+"/"; %>
        Now the variable have the root path for your application , So suppose your 2nd jsp page is
inside a director called jsp so now you use:-
window.open("<%=webpath%>jsp/FFDialog.jsp", "Dialog","width:200px;height:100px;
toolbar:no;directories:no;status:no;menubar:no;scrollbars:no;resizable:no;modal:yes");
       Same way if you have your css file inside a directory called css use below code:-
<LINK href="<%=webpath%>css/style1.css" type=text/css rel=stylesheet>
    Regards,
    Piyush
