Hi everyone,

I have used javascript in my JSP pages but I'm having problem related to this.

I declare LOGIN_RESULT as a request scope attribute in my action class and
it seems ok at this point and I can alert the user regarding the result because I know I had defined LOGIN_RESULT as a request scope attribute prior to forwarding to this JSP.

But what if the request scope attribute differs depending on the user transaction and different request scope attribute can be reloaded together
with the page.

I tried googling for answer and found request.getAttributeNames() and it returns an enums. I dont know how getAttributeNames is implemented using EL and my action class always return just one request attributes.
What can I substitute "?" in my EL expression

Thanks for the help and tell me if my question isn't that clear

How is your dynamic attribute name getting to the page?

In general, indirection can be handled with:

where something contains the attribute name.

Hi,

How is your dynamic attribute name getting to the page?

Pardon me but I am not sure if I got your question correctly but I am doing this in my action class

in my javascript, I was hoping to substitute "?" with the attribute.

I can hardcode it one by one like this but I want to learn if there's an easy way out of doing this for the sake of learning.

Thanks again..

Why not just use an array?

Hi,

thanks for the suggestion. I have overlooked about using arrays. By using array I wont bother much on the attribute name.

Thanks for the help. I'll check and try it out..
