How can we put jsp or javascript code in java code on jsp

[Ravinder Partap Tanwar]

How can we pass the input of jsp page on the java code in the same jsp?

for e.g. I want to put value of Gender field from the jsp into the java Variable gender.

document.form[0].gender.value

<%
String gender = document.form[0].gender.value;
%>

Thanks and Regards

You don't: the Java has executed before it gets to the client.

Hi Ravinder,

Javascript will be executed at client side ( Browser) while scriplet ( i.e java code written in jsp ) will be executed at the server side. I don't know, what you are trying to achieve here.. May be you should explain your problem in detail...
