Retrieve values from a table of a JSP page in Servlet.

Question

Hello all,
I am new in JSP servlet world, I want to create a grid on JSP page using Servlet.
Suppose i have some records in a JSP page and This JSP page will display these records in a tabular form. And, on a button click that table data should be
accessible in servlet,
Now, How can i traverse among all the rows of that table of JSP page in servlet. or How can i retrieve a specific cell record of that table of JSP page in servlet.
Can anyone please answer this.
Thank you and regards.

Hi,
Create in your HTML form inputs with the same name i.e.:
<input name="a[]" value="2" >
<input name="a[]" value="9" >
In your jsp page use :
String Values[] = request.getParameterValues("a[]") ;
This will give you a string array of two elements.
for (int x = 0; x < Values.length; x++)
    System.out.println(Values[x]) ;
}Will print :
2
9
Hope this helps.
