parsing the vector object?

[T sandya]

Hi,
I have one doubt on parsing the java object using the javascript.

below is the scenario:

I have one table like below:

First row is columns and after onwards is the data:

Sequence no               Name                      link No
 
1                                X                             1                   SELECT(this is button)
 
1                                X                              2SELECT(this is button)
 
2                                Y                              1SELECT(this is button)
 
2                                Y                               2SELECT(this is button)
 
2                                 Y                               3SELECT(this is button)
 

this html table data is created in jsp by reading the vector object.

but i want to know is , when i click the SELECT button i want to get the list of link No's for the selected Name.

already we have the vector object, just we need to write or parse the object using the javascript.

how we can acheive this?

You can't. The vector does not exist on the client where the JavaScript is executed. You might find this article article helpful in understanding why.

What I usually do in such cases is to use the JSP to generate JavaScript code that will do the appropriate thing when the button is clicked.
