how to access a session variable in servlet from a jsp

[Seetharaman Venkatasamy]

Hi ajithsasi kumar,

You can access session variable from any component of your application..

in jsp just set the value & in servlet get the value
---------------------------------------
jsp:

session.setAttribute("key","value");//session is an implicit Object in jsp

servlet:

HttpSession session=request.getSession(false);
session.getAttribute("key");//returns Object value
---------------------------------------------

Thanks & regards,
seetharaman

And dont forget to set session attrtibute of page directive :0)

<%@page ... session="true" ..%>

request.getSession().getAttribute(ATTRIBUTE_NAME);

This happens to be the default value of this attribute. So it's not necessary to set it, unless if the page should not be part of the session, then it needs to b set to false.
