Storing values on clientside

[subhakar_nani]

Hi,

Can u tell me how to store the values that are retrieved from the serverside on the clientside

For ex i retrieved values from database using JSP and i want to store them in a Java script array so that they can be used afterwards for clientside working.

Thanks in advance

Set it as a request attribute and retrieve it in the JSP. It will be some jugglery of scriptlets and javascript.

Here's a snippet which might give you an idea.

<%
    List dbList = (List)request.getAttribute("somereqparam");
%>

<script>
var jsArray = new Array();

// Somewhere in the script code
<% for(int i = 0; i < dbList.size(); i++) { %>
jsArray[<%=i%>] = "<%=dbList.get(i).toString()%>";
<% } %>
</script>
