Hi harsha,

Did you try passing the jsp variable in the javascript function. That way you get the value of the jsp variable in the script function.

ex.


<% String s = "hello" %>

Perhaps there is some way to do this.

1. If you only want to use the variable value once , you can embed the jsp tag inside your JavaScript segment such as:





2. You can see the Resin project (www.caucho.com), which use JavaScript as a server side Script, but you can't use client side JavaScript access jsp variable directly!

Good luck my friends!!!

Essentially, you can't. The JSP variable doesn't exist when the JavaScript is running as JSP runs in the server and JavaScript runs in the browser. Some servers though support server-side JavaScript. Read the FAQ for pointers on those.
