how to transfer Object or request between jsp??help??

[alex han]

i have two jsp---jsp1,jsp2.
in jsp1,hava some code that get a List object:

List test = (List)request.getAttribute("allrecord");

i want to transfer "test" to jsp2 by click a button,whose onclick function is:

<script language="javaScript">
 function preview(){
     location.href="<%=request.getContextPath()%>/jsp2.jsp"
 }
 </script>

and i can get "test" object in jsp2。but i don't want to use servlet/action to help transfer object, and i dont't want to use session ojbect to store List object...
Is there any method that can transfer object between jsp diectly???
i know the code

pageContext.setAttribute("list",request.getAttribute("viewList"),PageContext.REQUEST_SCOPE);
pageContext.forward("/jsp2.jsp");

but i can't use javascript code to control those two java code..
help.......thanks a lot...

No. The only way to get from one JSP to the other is to perform a request to a server-side action, servlet, or the other JSP.

use session object.
in jsp1:
session.setAttribute("data1",List1);

in jsp2:
List List1=(List)session.getAttribute("data1");

Or if you wanna put it into *request* scope.
you can do it this way:
<jsp:useBean id="data" class="java.util.List" scope="request" />
<%
populate data here
%>
<jsp:forward page="2.jsp" />
Hope it helps.
