Hi Nalini,

You can pass the variable of the javascript to JSP by appending the variable and its value as a queryString to the URL eg:http://URL&javascriptVariable=value. that you are using to submit to the class where you want to access the variable in the method.However you need to have access to the request object in the method where you want to access the variable like request.getParameter("javascriptVariable")


This might be one of the approches.
Hopes this helps

Impossible. Please read this article to find out why.

The only way to do this by create new request to server..


Try posting form or using Ajax.......

It's clear that the poster is asking about passing JavaScript data to a method in the same JSP. The article points out why this is clearly impossible. (Aside from the fact that it's unbelievable that people are still putting Java code in JSPs! )

you can go through this framework which may help you do this ..

DWR is an Ajax framework for Java developers, really--it doesn't matter what the presentation layer is as long as you can execute JavaScript in it.
